Great idea. Phone orders only, placed through a local terminal not the website. Excellent!!

I predict "call to order" then the sale is not an "internet sale".
Much like companies are cutting employee hours to avoid obamacare people will find a way to avoid this.

Great.. one more way to KILL small business by making them less competitive and increasing their overhead. Companies will just adapt to this BS (and regular employees will pay for it).. getting close to 1M/year... time to SPLIT THE COMPANY.

The U.S. Senate passed the Internet Sales Tax Bill. Jeff Flake's office says he voted against it and John McCain's office said he voted FOR it.
It is being reported there in some 9,600 taxing authorities in the U.S. Add to that 560 or so Indian tribe taxing authorities. That is over 10,000 taxing authorities. Yikes!! Any company with 1 million in sales will be required to comply. I can tell you that a company that has 1 million in sales is not a big company. That online retailer might consist of 2 or 3 employees with some additional help from a number of consultants and potentially a fulfillment center.
From first hand experience, I would say this law, if passed by the U.S. House, will cause a bunch of small online retailers to either go out of business or reduce sales through raising prices or some other
method.
This may very well play out like ObamaCare where companies are reducing the hours of their employees so they have less than 50 full-time employees. In other words we will experience the unintended consequences of these laws.
These polices effect each of us.

Yikes, yes! And that will provide the revenue to expand Internet government regulation and compliance.
Sadly, it had to happen.
