or you are again saying shit w/o knowing what ot means. the case you site was for a company using and advertising to out of state residents, specifically. 'buy from us sd resident, pay no tax.' the ruling said because if that, the company i said needed to register in sd as.. wait for it... a foreign corporation. like what i said in literally my first comment.
and even this was just a ruling, very limited in scope, and very specific. many rules, and all of them not allowing to tax an out of state entity, but for specific cases, saying the out if state business is actually an in-state foreign corporation, and hence should register as such. this is why most out of state online stores are... still tax free. ebay included. amazon included for places they don't have offices or warehouses.
so yet again, the thing you linked proves you wrong. here's a good summary of your case. whicj you will neither read, nor understand.

Your own link specifically says "With the Wayfair decision, states can begin taxing remote retailers and recouping that revenue." And goes on to totally obliterate your entire argument. How fucking stupid are you?
My rights don't end where your fear begins.

quite smart actually. you need to look up what a foreign corporation is. which is business 101 of starting a company. the decision is about companies evading being a foreign corporation. foreign corporations have to pay taxes. as i literally said, in my original comment. in your example of soylent, with this court decision, soylent, and most businesses would Not be foreign corporations, and would not be affected by this ruling.
i am 100% sure i am 200% smarter and more informed than you. because instead of learning and understanding things you don't know and understand, you take pride in being dense, and are too lazy to put in the effort required for actual knowledge. as far as this topic, since I own an almost 20yo company that does out of state consulting and software, and have been very involved in its taxes, i was forced to learn this topic quite well. you -you are just a retard.

And I've been doing the same for 25 years and know for a fact that you don't have clue one what you're talking about. Should we whip them out and measure now since you're obviously not going to change your mind now matter how many times I cite you decisions saying you're dead wrong?
