Comment Re:More taxes? (Score 2, Interesting) 859
In Sweden (EU), the tax is 25%, for me 8.5% is almost like nothing :-)
However I can buy from other EU countries that have a lower tax. In EU sales tax is payed at the rate for the country where the company is located.
So in some sense we are having those taxes in EU already. And the Internet sales is much bigger in US, the tax is probably one big piece of the explanation for that I'll guess.
