From what i researched, there is nothing saying that he raised taxes. But he did cancel pay raises for the military!

Sorry....Carter didn't cancel pay raises for the military. As a matter of fact, the military received more double digit pay raises under Carter than any administration before or after.

Even the 1981 pay increase for which Reagan takes credit was actually submitted and approved by Carter.

Why did the president raise taxes after The Louisiana Purchase?

First, the President can not raise taxes. Only Congress can do that. Thomas Jefferson was the President who made the Louisiana Purchase. Money had to be borrowed from European bankers to make the purchase. I am not aware that Jefferson asked for any tax increases. There was no income tax in those days. Tariffs and duties were the main source of revenue. There were taxes on whiskey and certain commodities.
