This is a revenue bill, that is all. They want to collect sales taxes on the goods.
Disobey, Louisiana!
Louisiana will be SOL on garage sales—between their law and fed law:
Americans who slap $1 pricetags on their used possessions at garage sales or bazaar events risk being slapped with fines of up to $15 million, thanks to a new government campaign.
The “Resale Round-up,” launched by the Consumer Product Safety Commission, enforces new limits on lead in children’s products and makes it illegal to sell any items that don’t meet those limits or have been recalled for any other reason.

That’s it. What about garage sales? Buying or selling gold or silver? Isn’t LA a red state? Very nasty.
