Agree

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

While libertarians generally oppose taxes and government intervention, this answer focuses on the federal government's authority rather than the principle of minimizing taxation. Libertarians may agree with the sentiment that the federal government should not impose state and local taxes, but this answer does not directly address the libertarian opposition to taxation itself.

Slightly disagree

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

Libertarians generally oppose taxes and government intervention in the economy. While this answer suggests a different approach to sales tax collection, it still involves taxation and government intervention. Some libertarians may see this as a more equitable solution compared to imposing an in-state sales tax on online purchases, but it does not align with the core libertarian principle of minimizing taxation.

Disagree

Yes

Libertarians generally favor less taxation and less government intervention in the economy. Imposing an in-state sales tax on online purchases would be seen as an unnecessary burden on both consumers and businesses. However, some libertarians may argue that if a sales tax exists, it should be applied consistently to all transactions, including online purchases.

Strongly disagree

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

Libertarians generally oppose taxes and government intervention in the economy. They would likely disagree with the idea of imposing an in-state sales tax on online purchases to create fairness between online and traditional stores, as it would increase government intervention and taxation. Libertarians would instead argue for reducing or eliminating sales taxes for all businesses, rather than increasing them for online retailers.
