Well.. as a mayor (and a merchant) most of us who are crafters doesn't seem to have a problem in my town (we have 1% tax) to help upkeep our town.

I am proposing a "reimburst on sale tax" like giving back 10% of sale tax earn back to the merchant. (those who have vendors in merchant tent that I set up)

But right now there isn't seem to be a problem, so we'll see what is going on.

Perhaps in your state, but my business purchases on anything purchased for re-sale have always been tax-exempt. The supplier has my tax ID on file, and submits that in lieu of the sales tax I would have paid as a final consumer of the goods. State and local municipalities are responsible for setting these taxes, not the federal government, so YMMV depending on where you live.

You are exempt because of the tax ID. My original post said there are exemptions. I also stated that all sales taxes are local. They aren't federal.
