"California lawmakers are eager to harpoon the great white whale that is Amazon.com to force it to pay sales tax on every HDTV and Kindle it sells here. But those efforts could ensnare scores of smaller fish: mom-and-pop Internet businesses that rely on Amazon and other e-tailers for their livelihood.
The e-commerce behemoth has avoided paying sales tax in California because it has no offices, stores or warehouses in the state."

Lots of jobs are at stake, and Sacramento is doing its best to kill them.
