Discredit the Supreme Court whenever possible. Collect the taxes by harrasing the sellers with audits and making them so time consuming that they give in and collect the taxes even though they do not think they are required to do so. This, unfortunately, is the method being used by the states. The Supreme Court IS the authority on this issue. This method rightfully creates extreme controversy within the business community.
Businesses then seek protection from their elected officials.
Continued state action on this front could result in federal legislation controlling state taxing activities. If a state is going to pass a tax then it ought to collect that tax. With the Use Tax, the problem is that the states have invented a tax which is so onerous to collect that nobody, including themselves, wants to collect it. Many industry organizations are studying this problem and will most likely propose various solutions. The Silicon Valley Software Industry Coalition has issued a White Paper on this subject.
