Proposed Internet sales-tax legislation received a huge boost on Monday when the White House officially backed the bill, saying it would level the playing field among online and retail stores by ensuring that both pay sales taxes. (Bold added)
Well, not exactly.
There are no shipping and handling charges with brick-and-mortar "retail stores."
So this bill would really allocate to those stores a huge advantage...

Looks like another administration black market stimulus package.

Fair to whom?
Certainly not customers.
Just what we need: another tax. :(

It would exempt online companies with sales of less than $1 million a year from collecting or paying the sales taxes, and it would add roughly $10.1 billion a year to local government coffers, according to the Congressional Research Service, at a time when most states are looking for any and all fiscal fixes. Sure seem to be a lot of laws being passed with exemptions. Whatever happened to equal protection under the law?

“add roughly $10.1 billion a year to local government coffers,”
Actually it will add many more businesses under $1 million, when you add in Obamacare mandates.

First they gotta get this established, then they can worry about making taxes retroactive to when Algore invented it.

If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street,
If you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat.
If you get too cold I’ll tax the heat,
If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet.
