If I may ...
For your consideration ...



It's one thing to charge a sales tax, ya know, on sales. It's another to add an extra fixed charge on top of that. The impetus for charging a sales tax for online sales was because people figured out that buying online, instead of a brick and mortar store, was a good way to avoid the sales tax. This stupid idea also appears to discriminate against every other company that sells online. Don't see this going anywhere. Since it also violates the equal protection law clause of the Constitution.

Most on-line retailers are charging sales tax now. Apparently they have to if they have a facility in the state. That's why I was sort of miffed when Cabela's (now bAss Pro) opened up in Linthicum.

As you can see, I'm somewhat ambivalent about bAss Pro. I haven't figured out how Cabela's took it over yet now most of the product is the Redhead brand and not Cabela's, which was/is of much higher quality. Kind of like how BBT took over Sun Trust but now the procedures are all old Sun Trust ones.

This does of course, make a serious case for not buying any SMALL purchase - which I do OFTEN on Amazon.

Hey does anyone have an Amazon driver who insists on honking their horn repeatedly after they make a delivery?

Our UPS driver told us that the company will be cutting way back on the number of Amazon packages they deliver.
