![]() But to be clear, sales tax is levied on the seller, not the buyer. Who pays to the state? The seller. It is up to the seller whether or not they want to collect it explicitly from the buyer. For example, some vendors with walk in customers--coffee shops, etc.--might list their sales prices, then charge the tax amount, so a $1.00 item costs $1.0X when you finally pay for it. Others list their prices, and just send a check for X% of sales to the state. One explicitly collects from customers, the other implicitly, but in each case, it is the SELLER that pays the money to the state. But I get Florida's angle. Do they have Cubans in state government? They're pretty familiar with mob tactics, I've heard.

I think they call being born with physical elements of both sexes "intersexed" now -- at least in humans.

Sorry. I'm just not buying it. Is there somewhere else other than your post where I can read about the State of Florida compelling (or bullying) large companies to pay out-of-jurisdiction taxes in violation of the letter of, or the spirit of, Bellas Hass and the 14th Amendment? If so, I predict it won't be long before the state of FL will be soon relieved of some of it's unlimited resources when we're looking at "Big Fortune 500 Mail order company V. Florida." __________________ 83 FJ60 Land Cruiser (The Rust Queen) -- undergoing frame off rebuild/ diesel conversion 03 4Runner SR5 4WD V8 |

The original thing that I was ranting about was the whole system sucks and a friend got caught in the net because of a sales person (who was attempting to up his commission rate by getting ppl - attorneys and CPA's included - who know better to spend what they would have spent on the legal tax on a larger sale to get bigger commissions). He is reaping the benefits now of some of the power of Florida in insuring that its sales tax laws are complied with. They don't give a shit about what is legal in other states or even what the Supreme Court has decided. They just want the money. They are devious and will do anything to collect it. They also know how to turn the thumbscrews to get companies to voluntarily become their agents and do their job for them. __________________ SR+ steven d philbrick srplus@hotmail.com '86FJ60 - 'BlueBird' .

Check it out, I found a hostel in a small town near 4 resorts (Valle Nevado, La Parva, El Colorado and Los Farrelones) that is 300 feet from a t-bar. And it has a bar. I'm thinking thats the way to go for the first week.
5 resorts in one trip to Chile. __________________ 1976 FJ-40 2001 UZJ-100 Pain is just weakness leaving the body. "Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light." - Dylan Thomas |

tea kettling sales tax is like, alot of words and stuff. but I will add when calculating CA income tax using TurboTax, there is a question if you've purchased any items from out of state, and if so, how much....

[RANT]Here sales tax is due on the sale of taxable goods or services as defined by our state laws or constitution. That sales is required to be paid by the person buying the merchandise or service. The person making the sale becomes an agent of the state to collect the sales tax and accepts the payment of the tax from the buyer and remits the tax collected to the state. It is the person making the purchase that must pay the tax on the merchandise or sale by payment of tax to an agent or by submitting a voucher and paying themselves if the vendor is not an agent for sales tax collection. The laws covering what is taxed and how it is taxed and all the things surrounding the issues are as clouded and skrewed up as the lawyers we have elected have been able to make them. As a Florida Sales Tax Agent who must file a monthly report I can attest to this. I can also speak to the expense of dealing with the attorneys for the state and the auditors since businesses like mine were targeted to insure compliance. There is nothing like having three state auditors in your office going over every receipt for a screw or pop rivet for almost a month to get this to sink in. One of the rules about sales tax is IN Florida... is that if I use one screw in making a repair or even a paper towel to clean off a face of a sign with Windex then the entire labor bill is taxable... So on a $400 repair would net the state .075% of my labor or $30. So I buy a lot of screws personally, pay the sales tax on them upon the sale, do not include them in my inventory and give them to my customers. Then no materials are used in the repair and no sales tax is due. Switching from cawfee to water. [/RANT]BTW - If I preface my post with [RANT] and end my post with the [/RANT] - there is more than a 50% chance I will continue to teakettle if given the impetus.
