tripleevenfall writes "A Democratic senator is preparing to introduce
legislation that aims to [0]end the golden era of tax-free Internet
shopping. The proposal â€" expected to be made public soon after Tax Day â€"
would rewrite the ground rules for Internet and mail order sales by
eliminating the ability of Americans to shop at Web sites like Amazon.com
and Overstock.com without paying state sales taxes."
