Through taxes
Income tax*edit* I don't think so. Perhaps in modern times, but income taxes weren't even considered constitutional until the sixteenth amendment was ratified in 1913. It was used as a considerable source of revenue around WW2, and it just sort of stuck around after that. In 1890, I would say custom duties (tariffs) were the main source of federal revenue.
well basically..... YOUR MUM
By customs duty
The federal tax that brings in the most money every year is the federal income tax. This tax is withheld from any person who is employed.
National government
It depends on what "government" you are asking about. In the United States of America, the Federal government and most states levy and collect income taxes. So do many cities.In the Federal Government, income taxes are levied and collected by the Internal Revenue Service, which is part of the Treasury Department. The Treasury department is part of the Executive Branch, and is reports to the President.
The national government got most of its revenue in the 1790's due to import duties.
