The Third Estate in France, which comprised the common people, bore a significant tax burden, with estimates suggesting that they paid about 50% to 75% of their income in taxes and dues.

The question above represents a common misunderstanding regarding the reason for the colonies resistance to taxation from Great Britain. Most Americans today believe that it was an issue of how high the tax was and the burden that it would have placed upon the people. This is incorrect. The colonies resistance to taxation is directly connected to the issue of internal vs. external taxation. Internal taxation is taxes placed upon the people by representatives of the people. External taxation is taxes imposed upon a people that has no representation in the body that makes the decision. James Otis is claimed to have stated that, "Taxation without representation is tyranny". The colonists believed that laws imposed on a people that have no voice is a form of tyranny. The issue wasn't with a percentage, the issue was with liberty.
The bases of taxation refer to the criteria or factors used to determine how much tax an individual or entity owes to the government. Common bases include income, property value, sales of goods and services, and capital gains. The chosen basis can influence tax rates and the overall tax burden. Governments use these bases to generate revenue for public services and infrastructure.
The state with the heaviest tax burden is New York, by .5% compared to California.
