Brick and mortar stores are going to be hurt worst by this bill. The one thing holding back sales tax increases is the free market found on the Internet.

Once that free market has been wiped out nothing will stop a state from increasing its sales taxes. The B&M stores that are suffering declining business are suffering it not at the hands of the Internet, but because of anti-commerce policies of their home states.

Illinois is the perfect example of a job killing, liberal run state.

This should really be in breaking news due to the impending vote and impact:
