Just this Friday, Gov. Jerry Brown, signed legislation postponing new sales taxes rules that would oblige people who purchase online in California, which grants more time for conventional and online retailers to lobby Congress for a national standard on the high-stakes problem.

The bill, created as a compromise among Amazon.com, conventional retailers and California officials that searches for ways to raise revenue, postpones until at least September 2012 online tax rules, implemented as part of this year’s state budget package.
