A sin tax is a type of sumptuary tax. That is a tax specifically levied on certain goods and services which society considers to be unacceptable. Examples of items taxed this way include tobacco, alcohol, candies, soft drinks, gambling, fast food, polluting vehicles, and coffee. Some suggest sumptuary taxes on sugar and soft drinks for public health reasons. Some jurisdictions impose taxes on illegal drugs such as marijuana and cocaine.
The revenue generated by such taxes is sometimes used for special projects. However, such revenue can also be used in the ordinary budget. For instance, American cities and states have used them to pay for stadiums or for education. In Sweden, gambling taxes are used to help problem gamblers. People are more likely to accept sumptuary taxes than income taxes or sales taxes.

Only a government actually bills you for property tax...and I can't imagine they ever would charge sales tax on that, anyplace. If your paying the bill through someone else, say through your landlord or a lender, well you really aren't paying the tax...your paying rent or such, with some itemization of charges (he pays the tax), and if the item being rented (the primary bill) is actually taxable, this part of it is too.....makes no difference what it's called on the bill. Just like his salary isn't slaes taxable...if he charged you less rent and identifed/included an amount as his salary on it to total the same, it wouldn't be any less taxable.
