Suppose I live in CA and buy something from Amazon in IL. Just exactly where does the transaction take place? If the answer is in CA, then IL, by Fed Law, cannot tax the transaction. If you say the transaction took place in IL, I will argue that I controlled the transaction through the presented screens on my computer in CA.
In short, the transaction was an inter-state transaction.
I can't wait for this one to go to the US courts.

Gov. Pat Quinn says “Let them eat cake” while businesses flee confiscatory taxes. Let Boeing or Cat announce a headquarter move and watch the panic set in. You can’t tax yourself to prosperity. It’s been tried and failed every time.

This has got to be a very stupid move by Illinois.
It would be very easy for Amazon to relocate their warehouse activities to a state that is not going to tax sales.
As far as I know Florida is open for internet based businesses.

Just hear an interview w/ Fat Wallet (internet performance advertising site) who is in my community.They will now be leaving Illinois. They have already received cancellations from the likes of Amazon. They would lose 40% of their business if they stayed. They (and all the others like them) warned the lawmakers. Apparantly, these idiot lawmakers thought they were bluffing.

Illinois is going to find out how easy it is to move any business that is essentially a large data file, to an out of Illinois server.

So Amazon won’t do business in Illinois or Texas over taxing. At this rate, they’ll be down to a handful of states by 2015.
