i seen on the news the other day that the state of ohio is trying to pass legislation that anyone in the state of ohio that sells anything on ebay be requiered to have an auctioneers license. they are trying to pass this so that the state can collect taxes on the items they sell. greedy greedy governments getting into our pockets once more.

 

Forget that.....this calls for an e-mail campaign, whats next tax on garage sales?

 

thats what i am talkin about, i wonder how we could start a online petition to the state about this. if ohio does it then other states will follow. goverments are already surpressing us with taxing us to death.

 

Need to do some research on this, and get a copy of the bill first, then start e-mailing the the local rep's about it. Spreading the word to differant forums with state chapters would help in getting the word out about,also newsmen would help they alway's like a good story and this fits.

 

That's just crazy. We should get it out not only on this board, but any others you go to.
...and do you think ebay with all it's money won't be fighting this too?!!

I would be willing to send emails to reps, this is outrageous, if anymore information becomes available I am willing to lend support for Ebay, and all the people who use it.
