Colorado to collect online sales tax

Seriously, remember all this when the elections come.

This will be interesting to see if paying both the tax and shipping will equal the brick and mortar stores. You actaully do pay for shipping at the brick and mortar stores but never see it because it is just added in. On the flip side Internet sales rarely see taxes because they are not collected. This may be an equalizer but it may have other unitended consequences.

The state is more concerned about getting its cut than it is about the mom and pop stores in the towns like Creede. I'm just wondering if the localities are now going to hit up the state for their cut. I'm sure towns like Erie are going to feel it when Magpull finished their evacuation.

THIS!
They can collect and raise all the taxes they want, still won't fix a damn thing if they can't work WITHIN a fucking budget.

Makes little difference to me since I'm not shopping much anymore. I have too much crap around the house anyway and I'm not going to make up the revenue they lost by pissing on one of the Colorado companies actually making a product that people wanted.

If the Dems could pull their heads out of their asses and cut spending they wouldn't need to create more taxes.
