States To Try Taxation Of The Net Again

kimbermatic writes "From the Denver Post comes this article that the states are ready to try and tax the internet sales once more. The poor economy is sending the 'hounds' sniffing for more money. An interesting, and alarming read if your interested in protecting online merchants from this taxation plan." 'though it's not really online sales that are the big ones people want -- it's catalog mail order sales, which are still much bigger then online sales.

States already tax internet

[pinkUZI]

States already tax the internet and all interstate commerce. It is called use tax and in most states it is the same as your sales tax. You are required to self-report all purchases each year with your personal state income taxes. I don't really know what states w/o income tax do.
