The majority of people cannot easily turn a few hours of their time on a whim into money because most of their working life is pre-scheduled. Others especially those most likely to be able to pick up a shift aren't paid all that much. I find that ANY new software requires spending time learning in addition to any cost up front. Furthermore most of the paid software would require me to use a worse OS and pay for the privilege so its an awfully hard sell to bother.

As far as accounting software I who simply manage my wages haven't ever needed anything more complicated than a spreadsheet. What software I've seen is kind of obnoxious and terrible so maybe this is an opportunity for someone.

You could always try clicking on some shady links online.

It's more video games. How would you get your your Nintendo console? How would you go by your kid? The new super Mario Brothers how would you go buy your teenager? The new GTA? How would you go by yourself? A nice little present of a brand spanking new super Nintendo entertainment system with yoshi island from your local mom and pop game store.

Oh you would do it all online and not go to a store because if you went to a store and bought those same things you would get taxed on them.

Actually the fact that software hasn't had a sales tax online has really only just hurt computer repair stores, mom and pop video, game stores and other local businesses

Big corpos are eating the loss of sales by just selling the same s*** on their own website. They're not having any sort of f****** issue with it. So for them it doesn't matter if the sales tax is applied fairly or not.

But for your mom and Pop store selling video games or other software it matters a great deal like a lot and it does make a difference.
