Practical Pieces & Perspectives

“In the U.S., the Constitution prohibits states from interfering in interstate commerce. And there was a Supreme Court case decades ago that clarified that businesses – it was mail-order at that time because the Internet did not exist – . . . could not be required to collect sales taxes in states where they didn’t have what’s called a ‘nexus.’ And that’s a very clear decision.” – Amazon.com Founder and C.E.O. Jeff Bezos
