E-commerce Taxation.

There are many issues regarding electronic commerce in America's society today. Electronic commerce consists of buying or selling products or services over the internet and it's very difficult to figure out how to tax these goods. First of all, when you order a good online it's not always from the same state as you. Say you live in California where the tax is over nine percent and you buy a product or service from Texas where there's no tax what so ever. Do you pay tax or not? If so, how much? Most of the time people would turn to the federal government for help but there simply are no federal taxes. Thus, making this problem very difficult to solve.
