I'm not upset. I would rather focus my efforts and attention on finding workaround solutions and helping others in the process.

When you consider how much we spend on amazon monthly, it's a noticeable difference for us.

It's water under the bridge but I am opposed to a "use tax" being imposed on mail order items shipped from out of state.

The item simply travels here on trucks that already pay road/fuel tax. The shipping company pays income tax on their shipping profits. Why does the state deserve a cut?

If you didn't see this coming, you're naive. I'm surprised that it's just now happening.
