I lose money every single day collecting sales taxes for the state I live in. I’m not talking about the paperwork time or the like, I’m talking the loss I take from the actual collection of the taxes. Sure, it’s only a few percent of the sales tax amount, but I get to make up that difference out of my pocket, and in a business of pennies, they add up.
So if another state demands I collect taxes for them, they can pay for that difference as well as my time and trouble. I get no services from them, and without payment, I will not work for them, nor hand them money out of my pocket. And I’m more than willing to go to court to defend that.
Great point. This crap is anti small business and anti consumer
