“stores collect”
Great point! One of the many reasons this should’ve been handled by congress, not the court. They’ve legislated from the bench here.
I don’t regard the states clamoring for tax revenue as showing the system is broken. For seller and consumer it is working just fine. Which I believe is the goal of commerce. Envious brick and mortar merchants should be cautious about urging states to tax online businesses. Unless they think they will be immune for other innovative means of sharing more of their revenue.
