Argh. My nearly tax-free life is about to go down the drain. And here in NV, they even tax the shipping and handling. This is gross.

Is the Republican Congress really serious about this, passing a tax increase like this in an election year? do they not even know who comprises their voting base, Republicans are heavy users of online shopping.

The Nasdaq would take a huge hit. No one will buy anything online if they have to pay sales tax and shipping, at that point it becomes cheaper to just go get the product locally and avoid the shipping charges. UPS and FedEx stocks would collapse.
