How Online Retail Is Starving States

I was wondering about this, How online retail is starving states. "One of the main ways state governments fund themselves is through collecting sales tax. But you can't collect sales tax on Internet retailers who aren't based in your state."

"There's an easy answer to this: Shift over to income taxes, or some other kind of tax. But conservatives in state government won't allow that to happen."
