Where is the 'moral imperative,' in the statement, "Render unto Caesar?" This was the answer to a question, "Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar?" In other words, is it a sin to pay taxes? It is not a violation of law, moral or civil, to pay taxes any more than it is a violation of the law to hand your wallet over to a thief. It is, however, a violation of the law to be a thief. This is not a moral imperative. Proof that, "As the legs of a lame man hang limp, so to a proverb in the mouth of a fool."

When the government becomes a third party to a two-party transaction how is that ever, "fair?"

They attempt to do that in OH as well. The individuals are 'expected' to report their out of state purchases on the state 'income' tax form under the 'unpaid-use' tax. The state audits businesses randomly and levy large amounts of use tax against businesses. I make a pretty good living defending small business against these egregious attempts by the state to levy tax. It is nothing but a cash hunt. Guilty until you prove yourself innocent. And yes texas chris: I know taxes on wages are slavery. So are land taxes, license fees and every other d a (m) n form of legalized theft.

Liberals don't think, they merely react, emotionally and with great feeling. Liberals are like hyper active dogs when master hands them a treat or gets the leash off the hook. The posers who hold themselves out as 'liberal' are the masters who care only about the power they wield. They love putting the leash on, but they dread walking the walk.

Never mind, I found a list of five.

I don't think the issue is fairness. When one is forced to become a tax collector for any state, even a state wherein one does business, one is an unpaid agent, and hence one is by necessity, an unpaid servant, in short, a slave. One could argue that the business (vendors) license requires one to be a collector, but this only affirms the forced unpaid servitude which states demand of business owners. I say, if you want sales tax, come and get it yourselves. Set up a table outside the door and stop every shopper as they leave; Demand the receipt and levy the tax. Otherwise, pound sand. That would be fun to watch.

Which states would be, 'sales tax free?'

And that has what to do with his immigration reform ideology? I am not a low-info voter, otherwise I would make my choices the same way you do. So what does that make you? A compromising, lesser of two evils, party over principle, dimwitted, low-info, issue oriented voter?

I must say, Ann, ever since 2008 you have really come unglued. I used to think you were a trustworthy writer. Not anymore. You truly are just another north easterner looking to impose your version of fascist government upon America. Party affiliation doesn't really matter. After all, Rubio's immigration reform isn't much different from Romney's or Christies or for that matter, Ronald Reagan's. They were and are, all, bad for this country. Apparently, you choose depending upon your sun-up, mood swings.
