3. The most important issue here, will Amzn's revenue growth be materially reduced
if the State/local sales tax advantage is removed. We are talking an average of 7 to 8
percents sales tax rate here.


Jan,

I doubt having sales tax will reduce sales. However, the sales tax not paid on prior sales will be significant. Take an average of %7 and last the quarter the sales tax was $6,000,090.00. That will become a liability of AMZN as the sales for the prior quarter, etc.
