States Look to Tax Digital Distribution, Violate 10th Amendment

Posted 08/13/2008 at 12:31:21pm

Now, its been a while since my constitutional law class, but what these states have done seems to violate the concepts held within the dormant comerce clause interpretation of the interstate commerce clause - that being that states are prohibited from passing legislation which discriminates against or places a burden on interstate commerce.  Hell, look at Bibb v. Navajo Freight Lines 359 U.S. 520 (1959) as an example of a burden upon interstate commerce, or Dean Milk Co. v. City of Madison, Wisconsin 340 U.S. 349 (1951) as an example of discrimination against interstate commerce.

 

I smell some pending lawsuits - ones which invariably cost the taxpayers of these irresponsibly managed states more money.
