Re: My $.02

I'm sorry, so since I work for Best Buy, I should pay income tax in all 50 states??? I don't see why I should pay tax based on where the company is located. It doesn't make sense to me.

AFAIK till now, all taxes were based on where you live. If that's not the case, then the whole net sales tax thing got a whole lot easier. You pay the sales tax where the company is located (and watch a whole butload of companies move to a state w/out sales tax). I mean, they shouldn't be able to have it both ways.

Only if you get _paid_ from offices in all 50 states. I mentioned in another post that it does not matter where your company has a presence. Only two places matter... where you get paid and where you live.

"Net sales tax"???? We are discussing _income_ tax.
