Very strongly agree

Yes, exempting online retailers from sales taxes is not fair to traditional stores

This answer aligns with socialist principles of fairness and progressive taxation. Socialists would likely strongly agree with this answer because it addresses the unfair advantage that online retailers have over traditional stores and ensures that tax revenue is collected to fund public services.

Strongly agree

Yes

Socialists generally support progressive taxation and would likely agree with applying in-state sales tax to online purchases. This would help generate revenue for public services and create a more level playing field between online and brick-and-mortar retailers. However, the score is not a full 5 because some socialists may argue for more comprehensive tax reform rather than focusing on sales tax.

Disagree

No, customers should pay the sales tax from the seller’s state

Socialists would likely disagree with this answer because it does not address the issue of fairness between online and brick-and-mortar retailers and could lead to a loss of tax revenue for public services. However, the score is not a full -5 because some socialists may see this as a compromise solution that still collects some tax revenue, albeit from the seller's state.

Disagree

No, the federal government does not have the authority to impose state and local taxes

Socialists would likely disagree with this answer because it focuses on the limitations of federal government authority rather than addressing the issue of fairness and tax revenue. However, the score is not a full -5 because some socialists may agree that the federal government should not impose state and local taxes, but still support state-level efforts to implement such taxes.

Strongly disagree

No

Socialists would likely disagree with this answer because it would maintain an unfair advantage for out-of-state online retailers and reduce potential tax revenue for public services. However, the score is not a full -5 because some socialists may prioritize other tax reforms over sales tax.
