Amazon is not using sewer, electrical, police or road services locally as brick and morter store would.
But the Amazon affiliate in Rhode Island is, and Amazon pays them a commission on the sale.
And they should be paying their income taxes. End of story.
Fuel taxes don't pay for the cost of disposing of the packaging, they don't pay for the cost of recycling the end product,
No they don't. But the consumer's taxes and fees do.
For God's sake, stop researching for a while and begin to think!
