Sales Tax and the Internet

[Diane Kennedy]

If you have, or plan to have, an Internet based business that sells products, have you considered sales tax issues?

There is currently a movement underway to create a Streamlined Sales Tax (SST) system that would be nationwide. That means you'll have to collect sales tax no matter where the purchases lives, or where you live.

Megan Hughes (Megan H) posted a great article about that at www.TaxLoopholes.com.

Take a minute to go there and read it..and then i'll give you my two cents on what I think is REALLY going on.
