The Amazon Tax
Jump to Comments
“We’d recommend Amazon illustrate the notice with photographs of Governor Paterson, Assembly Speaker Silver, and Senate Majority Leader Bruno, so that New York book buyers know exactly whom to blame. Under what logic, we wonder, does the state, or for that matter, the city impose no sales tax at all on clothing or footwear costing $110 or less, but impose the full 8.375% tax on books? Why should the Bible be taxed or books for children learning to read be taxed, but a $100 silk necktie or bikini go tax-free?” NYsun
