Sales tax is a lousy way to fund government
In Wisconsin, for example, the progressives fought against it long and hard. Conservatives like it because it's less burdensome on the rich. But IF we are gonna have a sales tax, why should my online iTune purchase be exempt, whereas if I go into Atomic Records or Renaissance or somewhere and buy a CD or vinyl, it's fully taxed?
