what impact, if any for merchant/artists using 100% bitcoin transaction in the US. None? Some?

Every time Congress has taken a serious look at proposals to boost Internet sales taxes, it has rejected them. That's probably why pro-tax Senators are trying to rush through an online tax hike with as little consideration as possible.

As early as Monday, the Senate will vote on a bill that was introduced only last Tuesday. The text of this legislation, which would fundamentally change interstate commerce, only became available on the Library of Congress website over the weekend. And you thought ObamaCare was jammed through Nancy Pelosi's Democratic House in a hurry.

Great, more money for them to waste. Higher taxes just means more people will try to avoid them. These lunatics will never learn.

I believe bitcoin's timing is like "Spiritual Math X Ray Vision into the future", or something :-)

I mean Cyprus, less and less freedom on the net, CISPA, total control through the power of taxing everything and everyone. The Machine is pushing hard but we are pushing back. Hard.

I'm stealing that phrase for use at my next paranormal meetup group. 

"Bitcoin has been an amazing ride, but the most fascinating part to me is the seemingly universal tendency of libertarians to immediately become authoritarians the very moment they are given any measure of power to silence the dissent of others."  - The Bible
