End of quarter report. State of Euphoria sales $9999999. Tax due is
sales X 6%. Send it in.

But what about the City of Miniscule Heights and it's tax and the MH
Stadium fund that gets sales taxes from part of MH, part of the
unincorporated part of Miniscule County, and a sliver of the next county
over.
If there was a way to say we were just going to collect only state
sales taxes, you'd have a point.



I guess I have a point. Did Amazon say they would collect for every
tax district or just the states?


They are concerned that if they do one they have to do all, or at least
defend the suits in Court. You think MH is gonna sit back and let the
state have all the fun and just let that rev source alone? That is one
of the reasons they have been trying to get the Feds involved so that
any legislation can specifically say they don't have to mess with MH,
only the state.
