The current taxation structure is such, that it depends on bottlenecks in the system, where it can target few people to act as its agents and collect the taxes on the government’s behalf. And later the government could collect from these agents. 

Now, the problem that arises with an ecommerce is that these bottlenecks are vanishing, and the number of people involved has vastly increased thus making individual accounting virtually impossible.
