The day Internet purchases became possible. Mail order purchases have always been taxable under the exact some clause of the sales and use tax law. Out of state companies are not required to collect, but the buyer has always been required to pay. Until recently, this was the least enforced law on the books. The same applies to ALL states that have a sales tax.

in actuallaty all the states are "supposed to" but there are loopholes for out of state transactions where no state tax is collected. However it's up to the individual states wether or not to enforce that.

As soon as they found out that they could do it and get away with it. The power to tax is the power to destroy.
