The United States has a progressive tax system so the more your income, the higher your income taxes will be. U.S. Citizens are also subject to many, many different kinds of taxes. Some of these taxes include State and Local Income Taxes, State and Local Sales Taxes, State and Local Property Taxes on homes, land, and other property, State and Local Motor Vehicle Taxes, Federal, State and Local Gasoline Taxes, etc. There is also a host of embedded taxes that the people of the United States pay such as taxes that are imposed on business and corporations that are passed on to the consumer, taxes imposed on utilities, telephone, railroad, transportation, etc.
