The internet tax plan has passed both houses. Nevermind that the Supreme Court has said (twice) that businesses aren’t required to collect taxes for a state unless the business has a presence in the state. I love how the local news rags have spun this as 1) a plan to streamline taxes, 2) a benefit for people who actually have a store presence, and 3) that the lack of a tax on internet sales is actually a loss for the state. And the biggest spin of all is that of the amount of money they lose because there is currently no tax on internet sales. Our legislators are either lying or are ignorant, either is bad.
