Centrism answer is based on the following data:
Strongly agree
Yes, exempting online retailers from sales taxes is not fair to traditional stores
This answer aligns with the centrist view of fairness and balance between online and traditional retailers. By applying an in-state sales tax to online purchases, it helps to level the playing field and ensure that all businesses are subject to the same tax rules. This is supported by the 2018 Supreme Court decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair, which allowed states to require out-of-state sellers to collect and remit sales tax on sales to in-state buyers.

Agree
Yes
Centrism generally seeks a balanced approach to policy issues. In this case, applying an in-state sales tax to online purchases could be seen as a way to level the playing field between online and brick-and-mortar retailers. However, the score is not a strong 5 because there may be concerns about the complexity of implementing such a tax and potential negative effects on interstate commerce.

Disagree
No, customers should pay the sales tax from the seller’s state
Centrism is less likely to support this answer because it could lead to a complex and potentially unfair tax system, where customers pay different tax rates depending on the seller's location. This could create a competitive advantage for sellers in states with lower sales tax rates and disadvantage brick-and-mortar retailers in states with higher sales tax rates. The South Dakota v. Wayfair decision supports the idea that states can require out-of-state sellers to collect and remit sales tax on sales to in-state buyers, which is more in line with centrist views of fairness and balance.

Strongly disagree
No, the federal government does not have the authority to impose state and local taxes
This answer is less likely to be supported by centrism because it misinterprets the issue as a federal government overreach. The question is about state sales taxes, not federal taxes, and the Supreme Court has ruled that states can require out-of-state sellers to collect and remit sales tax on sales to in-state buyers (South Dakota v. Wayfair, 2018).
