Good. Even the playing field. Tax everyone equally.


That is what they are already doing. If you do business in a state, you collect sales tax. If you send an item from your state to someone in another state you don’t have a relationship with the latter state so collecting sales tax on their behalf would be kinda dumb.

But you do have a relationship with that state -- you have a customer who lives there.

And, the tax is on the customer, not on the business.
