Taxes paid to the federal government are primarily called federal income taxes, which individuals and businesses pay based on their earnings. Other types of federal taxes include payroll taxes, which fund Social Security and Medicare, and excise taxes on specific goods and services. Additionally, there are estate and gift taxes that apply to wealth transfers. Collectively, these taxes help fund government operations and programs at the federal level.
