History of Taxation

The United States had a few taxes in the earlier history.

From 1791 to 1802, the United States government was supported by internal taxes.

The high cost of the War of 1812, brought the nation’s first taxes on gold, silverware, jewelry, and watches.

The Act of 1864, however, established the office of Commissioner of Internal Revenue.

Agree or Disagree with taxation?

I disagree because taxation makes us pay more money and we hate that!

New York

New York's taxes = 6%

They have everything high priced these days.

Arkansas

Arkansas’s taxes = 50% on groceries They have a lot of things that are

cheap and expensive I don’t really agree with the

taxation on groceries, but with other things I would agree.

Florida

Florida’s taxes = 6% state taxes

I do agree with the taxation because the percent isn't that high!

Hawaii

Taxes = 10 to 15%

Hawaii is a fun place to be, even if they have high taxes.

Arizona

Taxes = 7%

I can agree with the taxation of Arizona because their taxes are very low!
