But here’s the rationale: "Hit ’em where it hurts" Connecticut legislators are about to put into effect yet another heavy tax on its residents, and that’s a delivery tax. This on top of their heavy gasoline tax which has already upped the prices on shipping.

What do you think of those Kindle devices that Amazon says is selling like hotcakes?
