MySilentTeam.com expert contributors and respected eBay powersellers Dave and Debbie Harber are going to speak before a U.S. congressional committee in Washington D.C.
The committee they’ll be addressing is the “Internet Taxation Committee”. Dave and Debbie are part of a group of 30 eBay powersellers that have been invited to go along with eBay representatives to address congress.
Just the NAME of the congressional committee should strike fear in your heart. “Internet Taxation”…they are trying to kill the golden goose friends…
My friend Dave puts it this way, “Just imagine if you had to collect and remit sales tax for every item you sold online? Not only would you have to file to 50 states but often each state has different tax rates from county to county. In fact there are over 30,000 taxing jurisdictions in the US alone that you would need to keep track of.”
The potential complications and red tape that go along with tracking this tax is astounding to even consider.
What can you do to help Dave and Debbie prepare for their trip to D.C.?
They are requesting that you send them specific examples of how this legislation would impact your business. What are your thoughts on this issue?
