It seems unfair that a local store can supply the merchandise immediately
when one has to wait three days for that same merchandise to arrive from
Amazon. To be "fair," the local brick and mortar store should be required to
hold the merchandise, much like a lay-away, for at least a couple of days to
ensure "fairness."

well then in exchange for the waiting time you should have to pay sale
tax
then it would be fair


Of course if you needed another box of nails, a replacement for a broken
drill-bit, or a water pump for your car, you might be slightly
inconvenienced by waiting a few days, but at least the universe would take a
big step toward fairness.

It's for the children.

that is if you are lucky enough that there's still a shop to go to and
it hasn't
been closed because it didn't sell anything because every one bought
stuff online
to avoid the sales tax
