They most certainly have the right to discontinue doing business in Cali. They may well do the same in Texas, sadly.

So many businesses are fleeing heavily tax laden states, I see their point.Even though sales tax is a pass thru to the state and not profit. I can’t imagine the nightmare it would be for a company like Amazon to keep track and remit sales tax in every state. I look at Texas sales tax laws and my head explodes.

From Amazon’s standpoint...I would relocate. My question is this..if it is legal under the Cal sales tax code to force collection of sales tax...why would they not? Or should all internet sales in Cal be ignored for sales tax income?
