@cmuratori You're not paying for representation. It's cost of doing business with me. My employer files my employment taxes for me too.

@pornelski Filing taxes with a foreign government is kind of the definition of taxation without representation.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@pornelski In my mind, you should never have to file things with a government that you don't have a say in. It's very undemocratic.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@cmuratori You don't get representation for inconvenience of doing paperwork and sending money that isn't yours, sorry.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@pornelski What does that even mean? Money isn't "someone's". That money you're paying isn't yours, either! It was your employers.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@cmuratori it means the customer is taxed, not the seller. That's why b2b is VAT exempt. Read up on purpose of VAT maybe?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@pornelski I understand the purpose of VAT, we have the same thing in the US only it cannot be enforced across state lines constitutionally.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@pornelski And I think it's a really truly terrible idea. If you want destination-based tax, you need to do it at the credit card level.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@pornelski That is fair for everyone, because only people actually issuing money in that region now have to deal with the tax compliance.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@pornelski Forcing everyone, everywhere, to comply with _your_ tax laws is just crazy. It's O(n^2) and literally can not scale.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@pornelski Destination-based sales tax means that every company has to comply with every tax, which is O(n^2), and is just plain stupid.
