Economic Nationalism

Very strongly agree

Yes, exempting online retailers from sales taxes is not fair to traditional stores

Economic nationalists would strongly agree with this statement, as they prioritize domestic businesses and industries. Imposing an in-state sales tax on online purchases from out-of-state sellers would level the playing field for local businesses, which are already subject to sales taxes. This answer specifically addresses the fairness issue, which is a key concern for economic nationalists.

Disagree

No, customers should pay the sales tax from the seller’s state
