I apologize to all who may have been offended by my post on taxes. However, let me make something clear, I am not a tax cheat, or a freeloader, and for anyone to say so only reflects on them.
I fully understand the brick and mortar -vs- online retail issues, however, please don't forget that online retailers must charge for outbound shipping. So, assuming that everyone is honest when they pay their sales tax (as required by law in most states), online should be MORE expensive. This was not the point of my post though.
The point of my post was this: Shifting the tax collection responsibility for hundreds of taxing bodies to online retailers WILL make stuff more expensive and WILL drive some of us to simply close the doors. You'll have fewer choices in where to purchase unusual items, like airplane parts.
I have tried to post my opinions as related to AVIATION purchases. There was no "right-wing conspiracy" intended. How politics got into this discussion befuddles me.
I cannot speak to other states, but if you pay your sales tax on aircraft kits, engines, etc ahead of time in INDIANA,( i.e. before the state of Indiana recognizes your new airworthiness certificate from the FAA) there is a very good chance that you'll pay for it twice. YMMV.
I hope some of you have found something useful in my posts. If you did not, kindly leave the flames to some other forum. Comment all you want, but flaming personal attacks are uncalled for.
Thanks,
Vince Frazier
