if there's ever going to be net taxes, I guarantee you that I'm not going to be making a lot of purchases online, well big ticket items anyways. There's just no incentive - no savings.

The shipping costs these e-tailers are charging are causing quite a stir as it is and governments need not add flame to the fire and discourage internet e-business and its slow as it already is growth.

Even today with the words *INTERNET* and *World Wide Web* being a household names, still no majority feels safe and secure doing online transactions. Adding tax to this will only hamper growth and downfalls consumer interest and confidence in the system.

With system hacks and viruses hitting us and more lurking just around the corner, the net is definitely gettin' a bad rep.

I just slapped this thought together, hope I don't sound like some know-all dude cause I ain't. Its just my 2 cents http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif
