So now all the California "related" businesses (or whatever they call them) are going to STOP PAYING INCOME TAXES because they're moving out of the state, or will go on to different businesses. If the Amazon law was supposed to generate $150 million in sales tax (which is NOT going to happen now due to them cutting ties), and the affiliated businesses used to pay $150 million in sales/income tax, then the only winners in this situation are Best Buy and Target! California ends up with less money, less business, and fewer jobs. Stupid stupid Democrat financial philosophy. Raising taxes does NOT always equal more money overall.
Here's an idea Best Buy and Target: Lower your goddamn ridiculous full-manufacturer's suggested retail prices and I'll certainly be willing to pay a few extra bucks for the convenience of going to your store to pick it up. I will never, ever pay $29.99 for a blu-ray.
