As far as fairness goes, online shopper pay shipping which is most often equivalent to the sales tax amount. Parity is already in place. Even when shipping is paid by seller, it is built into the price.
Brick and mortar stores will not see an increase in sales from this. The government may see an increase in income, but those that think the U.S. debt will decrease are dreaming.
