They have to fund their pay raises somewhow! Sorry, but we are taxed when we make it, when we spend it and just for having it {and taking good care of it}.....and if we sell it.
We have 6% sales tax, except for groceries, which is 2%. We do have to pay an ad valorum tax {luxury tax} on our vehicle when buying a tag each year. The more your vehicle is worth, the more you pay.
I guess that is why we have learned to be resourceful. I love the many hints that have come across this board. :) :)
