Good news! Amazon Affiliate home page indicates that California has repealed the law and Amazon's Affiliate program is open to California now and they are now inviting California residents whose accounts were closed to re-enroll.

@webduncetv Awesome! Thanks for sharing!

The reality is, it has a negative impact on state wealth. Amazon (or whoever) drops the affiliates in that state; so, now that state has more people who AREN'T making money. It's really stupid. Hopefully the remaining states will figure out it will make them NO money...at all.

@webduncetv Agree, it's very counterproductive. And someone told me on FB that it has not helped revenue in any state where this has been passed. *Shocker!*

makes 90 k and dont want to pay tax?

whata goof

the great usa dont run on buttons

pay yo tax

[lisa3876]

@Gingervention No, no. He's not a goof. He was removed from the Amazon program by Amazon because his state passed the nexus tax bill.

If everyone effected by the tax just organized and flooded their state's lawmakers with protest! Those taxes would be gone next month! No Joke!

The sad fact is, no one wants to organize. Or the few that do, aren't enough. Check it: 3,000,000 people effected over something and only 3,000 come out to protest, while the rest sit at home complaining.

GET OFF YOUR LAZY ASS AND FIX IT!!!

When 3mil folks get together, CHANGE happens!

People forget that WE are the government. Not the politicians.

@jerrylittlemars I have to AGREE with you! My book "America vs. America" says basically that we are the people and we are the ones who have to build for ourselves just as we did in the industrial era! We have to be the bearers and the profiters.

great vid!

@lisa3876, probably what happened, Lisa, was Cali's governor was surfing YouTube, saw your video and THEN read my comment and was like, Man, they're totally right. We gotta get this fixed right away. Next day, he repealed the law. I'm pretty sure that's how it went down. ;)

Hell 90k a year, time to move to another state.

The government has taken control of everything, even eBay now in 2011.. If you sell products, sooner or later you'll be forced to file a W-9 after making a certain amount. And many of the sites I work with are doing the same thing.. I don't agree with the whole idea because the internet should be a free market place..

@giftedwoman777 Check out Change.org and start a campaign there

Weren't the states getting quarterly or annual income tax revenues from these people? Whenever I file my taxes, I state my income and then there's a state & a federal tax. Now the states have lost the income tax. I wonder how many of those people who lost their businesses went on state welfare... that was kind of messed up on the part of Amazon too, but I guess they wanted to make a statement and somebody always has to suffer to make a statement... eg. Rosa Parks, but look what she started!

This is exactly why I set up my own advertising on my own site.
