Will they soon be asking us to pay taxes on what we make on Garage Sales?
When will ‘Big Brother’ stop looking in my window, and start looking in their own? Did you know that any Legislator does not pay Social Security?
No joke! They retire at their current salary, and even get cost of living increases!
Call me crazy, but whatever happened to ‘government for the people, by the people, and of the people?’ I wish I was one of ‘the people’!

So now we find out the REAL reason for eBay’s Paypal only policy. The government probably leaned on them for facilitating so many transactions and money transfers that were going unreported as income. Big brother is watching.

Well it looks like Craigslist is going to grow in popularity. I haven’t been using eBay much because it’s increasingly sucky and now they are forcing me to accept some sort of Electronic Payment as one of the payment methods… So now I’m dropping stuff on craigslist to see what happens…

And it’s only a short hop from this reporting requirement to giving the sales data to every state’s taxing authority. Then we’ll be forced to remit sales taxes and presto! our Governor’s wet dream of taxing the Internet is realized.
