Re: California Screws the Pooch. Amazon cuts ties
Are you trying to claim that you don't benefit from taxes paid ot the state you live in?
You are also trying to claim that the delivery of the product to your door did not use facilities paid with state tax dollars? So, I guess the delivery service used private roads to bring you the product you purchased, right? And the facilities you used to actually order the product? Telecom lines don't benefit from public sector facilities?
What is the justification to pay sales tax? Are they using any of the state services to produce and deliver their product? No. Why should they pay sales tax? If I sell to you over the internet and deliver by USPS, what state service have I benefited from? This is why the nexus issue has always stood. There has to be some tangible reason for collecting the tax. Without nexus, there should be no tax.
So you are basically just for enforcing an inter-custom unions tarriff even when there is no tangible economic business reason to tax them?
