MA Shipping Bill

[Thomas]

If that is the contents of the bill they ought to pass it. It won't work anyway, and they will appear to have done something good. Why would any producer want to pay an annual $100 and then go through all the other paperwork and filings just to sell 24 cases of wine each year via mail to MA?

The sales tax portion of it, as Roberto says, is not valid, and if it were to go through all other mailorder sales would be up for law suits for sales tax evasion.

That bill is complete nonsense, and it still keeps it criminal for someone living in Vermont to send his mother a case of wine in MA.
