Good question. - Lemmy.World

I mean, that’s like $6/year on my taxes. As long as I’m not getting nuked I really don’t care what they do with it.
Aren’t you taxed for everything you buy?

There isn’t a US federal sales tax. Most states have a sales tax but that goes to the state government not the federal government. New Hampshire and Oregon have zero state sales tax too (with some exceptions like eating out).

Generally speaking in America the Feds regulate foreign affairs and interstate matters. Intrastate (within one state) things are left up to that particular state.
