To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks

As a small business owner that sells directly to consumers, this is a bad and disastrous decision. States already have laws on the books to collect taxes, now the Supreme Court gives them the go-ahead. Most states do not limit to companies with over $100K revenue in state. Now I have to negotiate nearly 10,000 jurisdictions—tax all, tax non-food, tax food, tax meds, tax shipping, tax services—all are sales taxes. A mess. And the cost of filing is on top of that.

I have friends who sell on both Ebay and amazon. Bad decision indeed. That means filing taxes to more than obama’s 57 states which is complicated.

My advice - don’t sell to Colorado whose sales tax system is a nightmare.

There are tax services who probably can help you but you’d probably need to raise your prices.

And the brick and mortar stores or those internet retailers with a physical presence in the state don't have to do this also? The playing field has been leveled and you are upset because your advantage was taken away. If you are a mom and pop corner store, you would be saying "about damn time."
