Internet taxes again
Anyway, I have been saying for a LONG time that having an interest rate on the internet is unfair and a MAJOR BURDEN! WHY?
PROBLEMS....
1. Mail order has been tax free for apparently over 200 years! The internet is simply a quicker way to do mail order.
2. There are "possibly THOUSANDS of taxes"(TMG says there are 9646!) They are applied in possibly DOZENS of ways on over 4 classes of sales reasons.
3. There are over 46(and may be THOUSANDS) of agencies that must be reported to.
4. There are *****NO***** standards, not even as to who to report to or how often.
5. Make a MINOR mistake, or do something they don't understand, and you have a limited time to respond or will have to go to court.
HOW local stores are BETTER!
1. You see the product YOU buy!
2. You KNOW the version of the product!
3. You get it NOW!
4. You have better support
5. etc....
Heck, I travel a lot. Many things I buy locally because I CAN!
Time for the laugh! Mclaughlin said a really STUPID thing! I missed wether he was quoting or stating, but he clearly agreed. That there would be an "app" to do all this. ************GOOD LUCK************!
This is NOT a new problem. It has been around for DECADES! I did some work for a company 15 years ago, and they had to deal with different taxes in every state on PHYSICAL goods. The internet was a SERVICE and thus TAX FREE, until, ONE DAY, Tennesee passed a tax on SERVICES!
The problem is NOT taxes! MANY programs today can handle that. The problem isn't even necessarily different classes. Some can handle THAT! The problem is updates and all that reporting, and related issues. And an "app"
WILL NOT HELP! It would have to be integrated with whatever system is out there. This is NOT standard! The platforms may not even be compatible.
SERIOUSLY? If you make a mistake on CA taxes, and are in MAINE, and they feel you haven't made good, they may SUE you, and you hae to fly to CA? AND, if they feel ANYTHING is wrong, or you don't comply 100%, you are NOT allowed to charge sales tax in CA! That means you CAN NOT SELL a taxable product in CA!!!!!! What happens THEN? You lose 12% of the US market because someone doesn't like you?
I was forbidden to collect sales tax in CA. And they TOLD me I thus couldn't sell ANY taxable products there. I had to push for MONTHS to find out why! So WHY was I forbidden? I was registered as a nevada corporation(AKA foreign corporation), and thus couldn't sell unless registered as a corporation in CA, which means MORE expenses, reporting, and problems.
