<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Neal, post: 4141454, member: 43872&quot;]Under the Constitution, all federal facilities are exempt from all state regulation, and that includes taxes.&nbsp;&nbsp; Article I, section 8, &quot;Congress shall have the power...to exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States, and to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings&quot;&nbsp; Also, a part of the Supreme Court decision of <i>McCulloch v. Maryland</i> (1819), was that the states do not have the power to tax the federal government nor any agency of it.&nbsp; That is why you don&#039;t pay state sales taxes at the post office, military PX, or any other federal government facility.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
