That was the point of big corporatist cutting out the small business ma and pa. And that is why for the ma and pa, it reaches past only tax revenue. It is personal to them and a blatant attack on entrepreneurialism, the backbone of our country.

Yes but that is not necessarily WHY the Senators voted on it...they see Dollar signs. They see increased tax revenue for the States.
We already ALL already admitted a long time ago the impact it will have on Ma and Pa outfits...do you acknowledge I admitted that several pages ago? In fact I admitted it's negative impact the FIRST time you mentioned it...did you see it the first time I admitted it? How about the SECOND or THIRD or FOURTH etc etc?

And did you notice several pages ago, for the First, SECOND or THIRD or FOURTH etc., etc. time that I do NOT agree it is only about TAX REVENUE?
If you disagree with me, then stop talking to me.

It is more than Tax Revenue and impact - it is PURPOSE. And that has been my point all along.

Re: Internet Sales Tax Passes - Senate Vote Count
That big business supports it does not mean the politicians who voted for it did so because they wanted to hurt small businesses though and not simply for tax revenues.

Okay, the K-street lobbyists hired by big business had nothing to do with the influence of politicians. LOL!

Pressing-On, Politicians don't need to be paid off, influenced or threatened to pass a bill that essentially raises taxes on Americans...ROFL!
