Tax Quiz (points based on performance)

Yes, we do have a few  quiz tasks, where your amount correct will be your points. The first one is on taxes. Personal income tax is an oft misunderstood topic, where many Americans believe these monies are 'stolen' from them to line the pockets of 'guv-mint.' While the tax dollars that are gathered by our country should very well be appropriated in an acceptable fashion, this is not thievery. It is part of our system, and if done correctly, part of what makes us such a strong country.
the overall tax burden, however, can feel overwhelming at times. Here is a short, not complete, list of taxes you may/will encounter in your lifetime:
federal income tax
state income tax
city income tax
state sales tax
city sales tax
county sales tax
property tax
'sin' tax
gasoline tax
phone tax
Combine that with fees like car registration and gun ownership background checks, and the American citizen can start to feel a bit of a pinch in the wallet area. It is incumbent on our elected officials to keep these costs in check, and fully accounted for, and if they fail to do so appropriately, it is incumbent on us to vote them out of their position(s).
