Paying sales tax on used vehicles in MA irks me. Multiple people are paying sales tax on the same vehicle; every time it is registered to a new owner, sales tax is paid.
Many years ago I kept a boat at Beverly Harbor Marina in Massachusetts. The agents from The Mass Department of Revenue would walk the docks and make note of out of state registered boats. If your boat was there after 60 days elapsed they would notify you that the sales (or use) tax was due.

The big brother situation will get way better just as soon as the 87,000 new IRS agents are hired!
