Sticky fingered politicians are itching to get their hands in your wallet again. Just over a decade ago, states were prohibited from imposing sales tax on internet sales/purchases because of undue hardship in maintaining accurate records of tax rates across the country. Continued mismanagement by many states has caused financial "crises" that has prompted another push for taxing internet commerce. Here's a link to a summary put out by ebay regarding this matter. http://www.ebay.com/sellercentral/publicpolicy.html

It's time, once again, to tell the politicians how we feel. Our apathy is their elixir.
