Yeah, that will help the economy.
“it would level the playing field among online and retail stores by ensuring that both pay sales taxes”
How about no one pays sales tax, @#$@hole?
If it passes, boycott the locals. Let the officious criminals make the next move. [There’s no next move that won’t end without the commie/fascist crooks being brought to justice.]
Didn’t Boehner say he was done with tax increases?
Also, since this is a revenue bill, how can it originate in the Senate?
Get ready to stop purchasing things on the internet.
How can we get rid of that illegal POS who is trashing America/the White House?
GAH!!!
My only consolation is that the Good Lord is keeping Tabs on everything Zero does and says. It may not help us now, but NO ONE can escape the Final Judgement.
Get Ready To Be Tracked on Internet Purchases...
Every knew this was coming
Wait until corrupt biggov attempts to censor nearly everything on the net and they announce they want to assign everyone and Internet ID.
They’re not too happy since even those drooling in cups have seen CNN and the media are hysterical, biased, corrupt, pro big government and basically do and say as government tells them to.
This hussein character, a Karl Marx clone if ever there was one, NEVER saw a tax he couldn’t love.
So we need even BIGGER Government for "fairness"...
That's the first thing Jay Carney has ever said that made any sense!
the Republican throat-slitting-contest
(their own) just goes on and on
I won’t waste my dime trying to contact any member of the Gay State’s Congressional delegation....all eleven of them are filthy,worthless Maoist punks.
Who gets the money? State with the store, state with the purchaser, FedGov?
Let’s level the playing field by getting rid of all federal sales taxes on brick and mortar stores.
If states want sales taxes on internet businesses, then that’s the states business.
If they want to forego that for now because BUSINESS (any business activity whatsoever) and JOBS are more important, then leave that to the states.
The Fed is just looking for another revenue source.
“Leveling the field” is just BS.
Prolly because Wal-Mart wants to compete with Amazon.
Sellers only need to keep track of 10,000 separate tax codes in the United States. They are trying to break the backs of internet sellers and drive customers away. If something is working, our congress and president must destroy it.
“Today, while local small-business retailers follow the law and collect sales taxes from customers who make purchases in their stores,”
*************
Really...small-business retailers? NOT! Walmart is probably behind this as well as those money grubbing democrats. I believe Obama is “gifting” this bill for Walmart because they backed obamacare and I believe Walmart is also extremely interested in pushing the immigration bill.(cheap Mexican labor)
Does anyone know if this affects movie and tv show downloads? This could kill Netflix. It would be cheaper for people to go to Red Box at their corner store and rent a movie outright.
Is downloading movies/tv a rental or a purchase????? What about i-tunes? This might be bigger than ebay and amazon. Way bigger.
Which brick and mortar business files quarterly sales tax forms to thousands of separate tax jurisdictions. This does not level the playing field, it kills off the small businesses that provide most of America’s jobs. Meanwhile big business bailouts and crony capitalism run rampant.
