You don't even want to get me started, this one's too close to home.

I don't object so much to paying use tax, I just don't like the burden on smaller companies, like Kristin mentioned, to try to keep current with all the laws in all the states, not to mention I can see them trying to tax sales that go abroad, like our Canadian neighbors. It's a nightmare! And that'll increase OUR costs, by making them add more staff to handle the requirements!PezKat wrote:Yeah, what I said... so many of you think that if you buy online, you don't owe tax! YOU DO! It's called Use Tax, you are supposed to pay it with your state return - and if you don't then you're breaking the law. Obviously not everyone cares, but some people don't even know. It's difficult to enforce so it's not. Meanwhile the few of us who do, pay more than the rest and it's very unfair. No one is trying to "add" or "raise" taxes, just get what people already owe but aren't paying.
I don't know what the solution is - obviously it would be a headache for smaller retailers. Amazon will start charging in Indiana soon & that's my main online shopping so yay!
