It seems to vary depending on where you look.

As a newbie self employed artist, it personally makes my job easier cause now paypal is going to issue me a handy dandy tax form instead of me having to do it myself in the future. =/
If it's a business I agree. A person like my wife that just sells some things to buy other things I don't agree. She's not running a business. She's selling things we already paid tax for with money that was already taxed. In my opinion that's not fair.
