Retailers and municipal advocates discuss benefits of online sales taxes – Center Square

Brad Cole of the Illinois Municipal League said, "The Leveling the Playing Field Act has been a substantial benefit to communities across the state because we have been able to collect those sales tax dollars. We see this as a huge benefit for the state and its local governments, but we do acknowledge the issue of the COVID-19 pandemic when many retail establishments were closed."

It may have been great for the taxing bodies but has been a penalty to individual shoppers.
