i wonder how much business amazon will loose on this.

by law you are supposed to pay YOUR state sales tax on all items purchased outside your state.
so if you buy something online with no tax, you are supposed to then include that with your tax returns, but no one gives a fuck so no one does.
therefore, California decided to kick everyone in the balls and make it mandatory for buying online
