[/quote] this law will never pass, not because they care about your rights, but because it will open up huge blackmarket buying and selling and government will miss out on sales taxes [/quote] how do you tax a barter system?- and what would be the loop holes? [/quote] Barter REALLY requires some sort of internet contact, like ebay or craigslist or something like that. Not only do you have to find someone offering what you want to get, but they have to want what you are willing to give in exchange. If this passes, internet ads could become illegal unless the poster proves they have the right to sell the item. [/quote]

What will the statists say?? Probably yes but you have to pay a tax, otherwise you're a criminal!

Your right to resell your own stuff is in peril
It could become illegal to resell your iPhone 4, car or family antiques
Tucked into the U.S. Supreme Court’s busy agenda this fall is a little-known case that could upend your ability to resell everything from your grandmother’s antique furniture to your iPhone 4.
