| Description | The Supreme Court says states can force online shoppers to pay sales tax, clearing the way for major changes in the world of e-commerce.
The 5-4 ruling Thursday is a win for states, who said they were losing out on billions of dollars annually under a two decades-old Supreme Court decisions that affected online sales tax collection.
The high court ruled Thursday to overturn those decisions. "The Internet's prevalence and power have changed the dynamics of the national economy," the court said in its decision in the case, South Dakota v. Wayfair. |
