Well it was good while it lasted but it's about to come to an end buying stuff on Amazon and other online stores where you don't have to pay taxes. Currently if a store doesn't have a physical location or registered business name they in a state they don't have to charge sales tax. This means several online retailers only add tax in for buyers in their own state since they don't have a location elsewhere. The big box retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, Target,etc. have always charged but soon everyone will be paying.

People are supposed to report on their taxes every year if they buy out of state stuff online but very few do that obviously so the government is pushing to fix that.

Sounds like this bill is as good as passed.
