Today we responded to a Eric Engleman’s piece on the Amazon affiliate tax in the Puget Sound Business Journal. Focusing on Amazon is not only discriminatory, it’s also bad tax policy. Transactions with small merchants generate more than half of the uncollected tax revenue. With services like TaxCloud, tax calculation, collection and remittance are free to merchants. We need to make it easy for all of us, including sellers, purchasers and government, to do the right thing for our communities.
