There isn't enough Bowie quoting around here.

If it moves, tax it. If it stops moving, subsidize it.

You sure that wasn't Bowie?

For years I've heard the arguments how an internet sales tax was needed, as retail outlets with overhead costs... land and buildings... couldn't compete with online retailers.

Thought the argument was that states and municipalities were losing out on revenue?

That too, I just didn't want to get too expansive in my point.

They still didn't have what I wanted, so I went to amazon.

I find taxation on the internet to be yet another issue of manipulating the free market for no good reason. If internet companies destroy brick and motor locations, so be it. But I expect there will always be a call for local businesses.
