It's not fair to him/her who owns a small business in Smallville or Largeville who has to collect sales tax for the state and a large e-tailer like Amazon gets by without collecting any at all. This in my opinion should not be a political issue---it's strictly a matter of fairness. What do you think?
I think you are 100 percent correct.
