Very strongly disagree

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

This answer is not in line with progressive values, as it focuses on the federal government's authority rather than the fairness and equality aspects of the issue. Progressives generally support policies that promote fairness and equality, and they would likely argue that the federal government should have a role in ensuring that online retailers are subject to the same sales tax rules as traditional stores.
