This is long over due.

Changes need to be made to a lot of things. It has little to do with adult. For example, if I live in California and I purchase something online from a company that is host in New Jersey but has a warehouse it ships from in Florida, where do I pay taxes?

In the US it's a little more complicated - generally it's based on where the company is domiciled - so for instance Dell is in Texas, so if you were in Texas you would pay taxes on a purchase and generally if you are outside Texas and they ship to you it would not carry sales tax - unfortunately, Dell has a distribution center in Florida too, so if I order here in Florida I do pay sales tax...
