Remember all those gifts you bought online during the holidays? Now it's time to pay sales tax on them, at least so say the income tax forms of 20 states.
The latest to outstretch that revenue-seeking hand are New York and California, which this year added a line requiring taxpayers to declare any tax they owe on out-of-state purchases.
Its sickening state government are so full of greedy little porkers who are working so hard to take more of folks hard earned money.
Dont get me wrong I hate to lose the savings I have enjoyed from not paying tax on things I have bought over the net. However dont you kinda think the states are just trying to get back what they already had and lost when people started buying things over the net?

The states didn't lose this money since it wasn't theirs to begin with. They're just not collecting that much in more B.S. taxes.
Constitutionally, states cannot tax interstate commerce (not that they don't try).
