“Here’s hoping the internet tariff is revisited by future Courts, as it’s plainly a restraint on trade. If cities and states really want a bigger cut of our consumption they should either raise local sales taxes, or they should demand that we report what we purchase outside where we live. Rather than hiding behind the courts in order to force non-constituent businesses to collect taxes for them, they should stand up and collect taxes on their own. And when voters vote them out, a message about excessive taxation will have been sent to all grasping politicians.”
