That way those that have the money to buy merchandise and services will pay the taxes needed to run the bureaucracy fairly. Also, it would put an end to a lot of this crap and my teakettling of this topic entirely.

No. I am sure the beaucrats will figure a way that you will be responsible for payin it no matter where you bought it or with what currency. It will be written into the codes and regulations.

Or save the trip and buy on your local black market, which will be certain to spring up all over the place.
Or buy everything from the Canadian internet sites that will explode in popularity with American consumers, since the government will be sure to open EVERY SINGLE piece of mail crossing the border to determine what it is, what it is worth, and whether or not it is a business (thus exempt) or personal (taxed) purchase, then warehouse all that stuff until those taxes are paid.
