Let us not forget the amount of various taxes implemented to fund military divisions and wars throughout US history. One non-war tax in particular, that's standing out to me these days, is the gas tax I pay that helps upkeep the highways. The roads are shit in my part of southern Indiana. Luckily my pay is shit too and I dont have to worry about destroying a nice car on these roads as my car is also shit. Here's to hoping for massive change.
