This project explores the history of taxation in the United States, tracing its roots from the colonial era under British, French, and Spanish rule to modern times. It discusses various types of taxes, including poll taxes, tariffs, and income tax. The project presents differing perspectives on taxation, arguing that while taxes fund government services, they can disproportionately affect less fortunate individuals. A comparison of sales tax rates in California, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, and Oregon highlights this discrepancy.
