Internet Sales Tax

It'll never pass as it's written. It will take a national collector entity to get the tax money and distribute it to every city and state. A potential boondoggle. But, taxes on internet sales is representative of no government service. Businesses located physically in cities collect tax because it's a 'social' benefit. Taxes go for roads, police protection, schools, etc. The business gets the benefit of city services in exchange for collecting tax. Not so with internet sales. Where's the city and state services?
