This article (and many of the comments) act like charging a different tax rate for each state is some sort of insurmountable obstacle or onerous burden.
It kind of is onerous. In Texas alone you have the state sales tax rate of 6.25%. Then you have cities and counties together can add an additional 2%. There are 254 counties and 961 cities. In the state alone that gives you 1,216 taxing jurisdictions. Since most of them are going to charge the max allowed you're collecting the full 8.25% which is easy, it's the disbursement that starts to be a royal pain in the ass.

Be respectful ... don't be respectful

We must do something for the children!
I was curious about what you were wanting done.
Was it we need to do something about Google's large and ever expanding market share or was it should we do something about mobile ads?
