The constitution granted congress the authority to levy taxes. Initially congress collected taxes from the states, not from individual citizens. But congress authorized a variety of levies and taxes, and an income tax during the Civil War which became permanent in 1913.
Before World War I the United States relied most heavily on international tariffs, essentially a sales tax on imported goods.

Freedom of petition is the right to?
It's the right to ask your representative(s) in congress for something you want. The longer version is "petition Congress for redress of grievances" which means asking Congress to fix a problem you're complaining about. It's probably hard for you to believe that in former times (before the U.S. Constitution) even this right was not usually guaranteed by governments. But they had to write it into the Constitution for a reason! In recent times, it has come to (often) mean the right to hire a lobbyist to talk to congresspeople for you, and sometimes to put up a billboard where Congresspeople might see it.
