The Government has no right to create a tax haven for internet companies that allows then an unfair competitive advantage.If the store down the street has to add 8-10% to the cost of the purchase in the roll of bagman for the government the internet guys should to.
The store in your town benefits (not that they are getting good value for their money) from state services (fire, law enforcement, public education of workforce, promotion of commerce, public transportation, etc.) The internet company uses none of your state services. Taxes should pay for services. Charging companies for the privilege of doing business with your citizens is not taxation, it is protection money.
>The internet company uses none of your state services.<
No they use plenty of our services.They use the roads,law enforcement,courts and fire protection.Tax free zones like the internet are just government giving an unfair advantage to a few.
