4. E-Commerce Taxation

E-commerce taxation is a sales tax that will collect taxes for out of states purchases. It is an issue that is difficult to resolve because, for example a buyer living in Arizona buys something from a retailer in California, Arizona cannot receive sales tax unless the seller has an office, warehouse or store in that state.I feel that if the e-commerce tax passes it will cause a huge change for the online websites that sell goods. Also popular websites such as amazon and ebay would most likely drop affiliates which will reduce the state revenue. I dont think this law should get passed because it would change so many things which would not necessarily be better for the individual states.
