I think a more general "fix" for this would be to just ditch state sales taxes and go for a more general % of income state tax. Yes it means I'd get hit for more money tax wise, but would eliminate the utter and sheer horror that is state and local sales tax code. That or something more like Britains tax code, though collect for the state the person is in for a flat % and pass that along. But really I think this whole debate sidesteps the real issue our local/federal government has with local vs nonlocal sales tax.
