That new law will cost them more in loss revenue than it will gain because too many will feel compelled to move out of state,and those unable to move will continue tightening their belts and spend less within the state. Over time, its tax base will shrink instead of expand. Coloradans may find themselves barred from all or minimal online shopping opportunities. They would have done better to create work for its citizens so that they would have the income to spend and/or invest in businesses. Colorado lawmakers are both desperate and shortsighted.

This is a classic case of government employees envious of others that have the ability to make more than they spend. It's the old greedy route that governments take, it's like you said Chris, they will simply move to another state. Happened here in the UK too. They started to place extra tax on corporations. What did they do? Simply move from London to Ireland. (Google also set up shop there). Then when governments are unable to manage their finances properly, blame low tax jurisdictions for it. (Why are they low tax jurisdictions? Because they can manage their finances properly). I have no compassion for fat oversized governments. What a load of crap.

Most people automatically expect to buy things and pay a little more on sales tax. That's the American way! The seller just passes the extra cost onto the buyer. That is if they are smart & it should not eat into your profits at all. 5-10% extra should not make or break a deal if there is true value. I am sure Clickbank will require tax payment included for each transaction up front to stay within the law.Other states will follow I m sure!
