    Employers and employees are the ones paying those taxes. If this could work at all, it’d only be taxes from businesses that don’t cross state lines. And I suspect feds would raid even those and arrest the owners.

    And unfortunately there’s a long history of this, like denying interstate highway funds to states that wouldn’t raise the drinking age.
