I am against democracy and for a republic, but that said the 17th Amendment has made the Internet a sales tax free marketplace. Repealing it may very well undo all that tax liberty, which also limits the sales tax raising ability of state governments even on businesses within their borders - the “brick and mortar” stores.

Keep singing that tune when Washington imposes a sales tax on the internet on top of regulations of the internet.

At the very least you should embrace your right to vote with your feet and buy from intrastate industry free of both regulation and Taxes. A right that should not be underestimated or understated.

I honestly Feel that States will inevitably have to impose sales tax on internet commerce as it comes to replace “brick and mortar” commerce.

In my opinion This should either be at the point of sale, or the point of aquation.
