Tim Kaine on Technology

Democratic Senate Challenger; previously Governor

Invest in communities--infrastructure makes us competitive

The other side fights to protect subsidies for Big Oil. We want to invest in our small businesses. They want bigger tax cuts for those who need it least. We want to invest in our communities--the roads, bridges and infrastructure that will make us more competitive. They want to slash education and job training. We want to invest in our future.

Force online retailers to collect sales taxes

Kaine indicated he was open to forcing online retailers to collect sales taxes, although he said the rates should not be onerous and some small businesses should be exempted. Allen said he opposed asking businesses without a physical presence in a state to collect sales taxes. Source: Washington Post coverage of 2012 Virginia Senate Debates , Jun 28, 2012
