Congress trying to pass Sales Tax requirements for online retailers

[CawMama]

Dh told me about this the other night. He says that Congress is trying to "sneak" it through quietly. Well, I know that we aren't the types who will just sit by and watch stuff like this happen. Can you imagine the extra bookeeping, and mess that this would create for online retailers? http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,516988,00.html

Just thought you'd all find it interesting. Also posted this on TBW.

Oh, man. That's going to be wild. What is crazy is that the sales tax isn't even standard for each zip code. So it isn't like it can be calculated automatically by an online shopping cart.

I didn't know that I was supposed to be charging sales tax for all orders shipping to New York. I better find out more about that!
