Amazon Tax.
Last year Amazon was forced to charge sales tax in New York even though they do not have any warehouses in there.

The most painful thing about paying the sales tax is that it is also tacked on to the shipping charges. Thus more taxes are paid online than in B&M stores.

Why should shipping be part of the equation for sales tax? I blame Amazon for that.
