Internet Tax Collections

Taxes go up 3 billion US dollars. I see I have your attention. Read more:

http://biz.yahoo.com/ap/090112/tec_i...axes.html?.v=6

I know it won't make any difference to anyone here because they always send
in their sales taxes when they buy something from any internet sales, but I
thought I'd just point this out I just found.

The 3 billion dollar tax increase should work wonders for internet sales
when more and more companies are going bankrupt and more and more people
across the planet are out of work.

.....just in time for the "New Democrats"....to take power.

So, we'll just stop buying online, like we've just stopped buying on the
street and starve their asses out of their mansions, too.

Only if the company you are buying from has an establish presence in your
state. For example, newegg.com.
They do business throughout the US, but only have establish presence (IE:
warehouses/shipping centers), in 2-3 states:
California, Tenessee, and possible a third in the northeast.

So, if you are ordering something online from a site that does not hold a
physical presence in your state, you do not pay sales tax.

Thats why I always try to buy from out of state =)

That usually works when ordering from overseas too, or when buying stuff as
a visitor in another country. Companies are meant to remove their own
country's sales tax, if they have any, from the price they charge overseas
buyers - some companies do, some don't. BUT if the products are over a
certain price (as defined by your country's import laws), then you may be
charged with an import duty / tax instead.

Better read it again, Jon. They intend to pass a FEDERAL law so that US
marketers collect YOUR state's taxes for them no matter where the seller is
even if he has no presence in your state. That's what's different from
now.

The only way to retaliate is only buy from foreign stores out of the
clutches of the US Gummit. I understand, even if Washington doesn't think
so, that many places are still not under the NWO jurisdiction, at least
temporarily, and not subject to ever whim of the NWO in DC.

I'll be buying a lot from China, Taiwan and Europe/UK if it passes.

Add true logistics costs in the coming higher fuel cost environment and
how do you expect that to work?

We've already seen modal split shift away from air and seen supply
chains shortened to land-only.

Just in time for the Republican Governator not to take his state into
Bankruptcy.

EXACTLY. And the Supreme Court has slapped down attempts by states to
collect, but has said Congress could change the rules.

Make sure thats where you order your Melamine laced powdered milk.

The way you worded your comments after the link implies that that this
taxing occured BEFORE the intention to pass that federal law, for example:

>I know it won't make any difference to anyone here because they always send
>in their sales taxes when they buy something from any internet sales, but I
>thought I'd just point this out I just found.

In other words:
"I know it (the law), won't make any difference to anyone here because they
always (already have been) send in their sales taxes when they buy something
from internet sales,..."

That implies that the law discussed in the link would not affect anyone
because people have already been doing said "sending in of taxes" on
internet purchased goods before.

Kindly note it's not about ME....

I was pointing to a news article. I'm on your side!

Not quite true. If one is buying from a company in another state that
has no presence in one's own state, no sales tax is collected AT THE
SOURCE. However, state law may well require that the purchaser still
pay sales/use tax. Such is true in California (where I am), although
no one does.

SC has use tax, too. Enforcement of the unenforceable is another matter.

How much did YOU send in last year?

Nuthin', just like the rest of us.

New Jersey has/had some sort of "use tax" on stuff purchased out of
state. In a fit of honest stupidity, I once paid tax on a large mail
order purchase. My payment was refunded without explanation! I didn't
argue!

Everyone in the revenue department office was rolling around on the
floor, then after you made their day, noone could find the form to fill
out they hadn't used since 1993.

Returning your payment was the easy way out of the bureaucratic uproar
you created.

I'm, personally, very proud of you. I bet we couldn't find one non-
DRM'd MP3 file on any of your computers or sellphones.

I'm afraid you're right!

Damned right you couldn't! But THAT has nothing to do with honesty;
what passes for music these days just hurts my ears!
