But the majority of Floridians did...and the number of Democrats vs. Republicans in your state legislature, is an indicator that of that!

All three senate committees that worked on the bill voted unanimously for it.

Democrats in FL generally supported taxing online sales - they just didn't agree with the use of the funds

and I would be totally unsurprised if we ever find out he's not there legitimately.

Wow! Two Insane things in only one day?

The usual Republican tripe will be something like, "We have to give it the rich 'job-creators' so they can theoretically expand their businesses, you know, and, like, hire more people so those people can have more money -- yes, the same people who got hit with the massive tax hike, yes."

The trick being, of course, that the rich never get around to expanding their businesses. How can they? They just took all that money out of the pockets of consumers who would otherwise have been their customers.

In Cali we pay sales tax on sites like Amazon or Ebay. As far as I know, our system doesn't hurt our businesses.

In my town the tax is 7%.. So on line purchases will be taxed at 7%? Would the vendor collect the tax and send it to the State of Florida? I'm curious what businesses are getting tax breaks.. Mar a Largo?

...if the purpose was to spend the money on things Floridians need, like a warehouse full of 7/16” plywood to be used for boarding up windows next time a big hurricane comes near the state. Or...well, roads, schools and lionfish eradication would also be good. But funding a tax cut seems really Republican to me.
