Real Solutions Think tank survey shows significant opposition to federal Internet tax
The D.C.-based think tank R Street says more than 56% of Ohioans polled are against out-of-state taxation on e-commerce.
Executive Director Andrew Moylan says the federal proposal known as the Marketplace Fairness Act would create an unlevel playing field.
Moylan: Where if youre a brick-and-mortar retailer you get to use this simple easy standard of collecting based on where youre located whereas you would be forcing online businesses to have to jump through all of these hoops to figure out tax obligations across the country.
