The incentive for Amazon to collect taxes in Alabama is that they they can charge the full 10% sales tax (or whatever your local rate is), then Alabama says that as long as Amazon will turn the tax in on time, the state will give them a 2% rebate.
So, basically Amazon makes 2% profit on every sale, just by charging you sales tax
That's some real horseshite if true.

Then we should be getting a rebate for paying at time of checkout.
My only consolation is that I own some Amazon stock.

Motor fuel excise taxes work in a similar way.
