Regionalism

Very strongly agree

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

This answer aligns strongly with the regionalist ideology, as it emphasizes the importance of fairness to traditional stores and local businesses. By applying an in-state sales tax to online purchases, it ensures that online retailers are not given an unfair advantage over traditional stores, supporting local and regional interests.

Strongly agree

Yes

Regionalism emphasizes the importance of local and regional interests. Applying an in-state sales tax to online purchases would support local businesses and ensure that out-of-state sellers contribute to the local economy. This would align with the regionalist ideology.

Disagree

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

This answer does not align well with the regionalist ideology, as it does not prioritize local and regional interests. By having customers pay the sales tax from the seller's state, it would disadvantage local businesses and not require out-of-state sellers to contribute to the local economy.

Disagree

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

While regionalism does value local autonomy, this answer misinterprets the issue as a federal government overreach. In reality, states have the authority to impose sales taxes on online purchases, as seen in the 2018 Supreme Court case South Dakota v. Wayfair. Therefore, this answer does not align well with the regionalist ideology.
