"Too" implies that people are still considered people, I'm not sure that is an assumption that can safely be made.Perhaps it's time for us all start incorporating to maintain our rights.

Sales tax laws are not only at the state level, but each county and city as well. When you build a B&M store, you know what tax jurisdiction that store is in. An online retailer doesn't have that luxury and has to know the nuances of thousands of different and constantly changing tax codes.

9mm Luger (there is also Makarov, but probably not what you are referring to is somewhat different) is .355 inches. All of the reloading manuals I've worked with (American) have the numbers in inches. Length of cases, cartridge overall length are both in inches. In addition weights are all done in grains (1/7000th of a pound).

You picked a single round you've heard of which has a metric sound, since it is called a 9mm. All of the SAAMI specs are in inches for the 9mm (and I am guessing all rounds). http://www.saami.org/specifications_and_information/index.cfm (review page 21 of the ANSI/SAAMI Centerfire Pistol & Revolver pdf).

In addition, .357, .38, .44, .45, .50 are all calibers named after their diameter measured in inches.

More realistically, it come out of your sleeping time.

If you buy anything from their shop, they post your credit card info and billing address online.

See the signature.

A little more seriously, I think Newt might be a decent option. The media will paint him as toxic, but I think he's learned from the early nineties. Had 2010 been a presidential year I think he could have ridden his success from the '90s into the whitehouse.

Its quite a bit more complicated than that. Each state has different sales tax rates. So do many counties. So do many cities within those counties. And at each level, the taxes are applied differently to different products. In some areas, you don't pay sales tax on unprepared food. In other areas, this extends to most daily personal needs. And all of this is subject to the frequent changes from politicians and voters.

Figuring out an accurate sales tax rate for product X shipped to a particular address is a rather tricky problem.

It will never be worthless. The US Treasury Dept only accepts US dollars for tax payments, so we need to have dollars to pay our taxes, or we go to jail.

I wonder how many ObamaCare supporters would support this piece of legislation in South Dakota?

It would of course be better to have had this piece of legislation submitted at the federal level to make the point.
