Sales Tax is coming to Patreon on July 1st... and I am not sure what that means.

So patreon sent out a thing this morning say that they had to include sales tax on all tiers. I don't know if that means they add a price on top of the tier or if it simply comes included in the tier price. I do know that it based on region... If you live in a state that NO sales tax is added, I don't think that anything changes for you, but if you live in a region that sales tax is ADDED then I think it applies to you. which is the majority of states in the US.
There is more info here (I am still trying to read through it and figure it out) :
I don't plan on changing anything, so I hope that this doesn't effect your support too much. If you have any questions, I don't have many answers at this point, but I hope to have some of this figured out soon. I think ultimately we won't know how this really effects us until July.
Nothing is changing right now, but I wanted to inform everyone.

For some states yes but there are other states that only if you get a reward then some are only if you get goods for subscribers repeatedly then some i.e. My Stat where I won't be taxed at all and al changes are alone happening in Usa EU been forcing taxes
