For example FL sales tax is 7%, but when we file our sales tax report we break it down to 6.5% state sales tax and .5 county sales tax, and the county part varies from county to county.

Here is SC the nominal sales tax is 6% and each county can add a local option tax of 1% (my county does not). Also, counties and municipalities each are allowed to add another (voter approved) percentage for special projects (my county recently rejected one this past election day for road improvement). So, the sales tax in SC can be 6%, 7%, 8%, or 8.5% depending on what county and city you are making the purchase.

tkbslc Pillar of the Community United States 1158 Posts	Posted 11/20/2014 4:52 pm Just more proof that tax law in this country is overly complex and broken. I don't have a perfect answer, I just know that its not fair to a brick and mortar store to tax a sale at a local store and ignore the billions in sales that now occur on the web. According to some estimates, 2/3 of sales will be online within the decade. Report this Post to the Staff
Pacificoin Pillar of the Community Canada 5404 Posts	Posted 11/23/2014 12:38 am very easy answer is a national sales tax like every other country in the world. In Canada we are required to collect and submit taxes on our ebay sales and have been for years. Taxes are just part of having a civilized society. Report this Post to the Staff
Domain555 Pillar of the Community United States 1804 Posts	Posted 11/23/2014 04:09 am Quote: April 15 is the deadline for most Americans to file their Federal individual income tax returns. Passed by Congress on July 2, 1909, and ratified February 3, 1913, the 16th amendment established Congress's right to impose a Federal income tax. In 1913, due to generous exemptions and deductions, less than 1 percent of the population paid income taxes at the rate of only 1 percent of net income. The main reason the 16th amendment passed was the rate was low (1%) and only the rich rich rich paid the tax Report this Post to the Staff
