No mystery. Another lying president did this exact same thing during Nam. We all know how that got paid for – no jobs, diminished status of living, selling off most of America’s European assets, massive crime increases, and nobody over thirty could be trusted.

It's amazing how libertarian you guys are starting to sound.

If you cut spending, you don't need taxes to support those programs. All we've got to do is eliminate all parts of the federal government not enumerated in the Constitution and we can eliminate income based taxes all together.

My question to the numb nuts trying to tax internet sales is this...

Who owns the internet? It's not the United States. It's certainly not any one of those states. How do you tax someone for something that isn't yours to tax? It's like me trying to charge tw for a car from xoxoxo Bruce. I don't enter into the equation. I'm not an interested party.

Also, if the seller is in different state than the buyer, which state did the transaction occur in?

This is just another example of people in government overstepping their limited authority and assuming they have the authority to tax anything.
