Amazon Folds In California Sales Tax Deal 639
theodp writes "In a deal indicating all sides appear ready to call a truce, the San Jose Mercury News reports that Amazon.com is offering to back down from its referendum drive to repeal an online sales tax in exchange for a one-year moratorium on collecting the tax. Under the deal, Amazon would agree to begin collecting the tax from California residents in September 2012, unless Congress takes action on Internet sales taxes before then. The development comes a day after a NY Times editorial ripped Amazon over its sales 'tax dodge.'"

In that case the voting machine should be designed to smack them. A giant ACME cartoon style ballot blow to the head would also be acceptable.

Mod parent up. Cali has all kinds of problems, but Texas is hardly a success story. Enjoy those wildfires, TX. Make sure all those Baptists down there know that God is punishing them for giving us yet another idiot presidential candidate.
