HISTORY OF TAXATION

Taxes was first imposed when the Greeks started taxing travelers to get money to run the army. The Egyptians all so taxed imported good. The Romans all so figured out how taxes everything.

AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH TAXATION?

We agree with out taxes we wouldn't be able to pay for our military efforts in the Middle-East. We also wouldn’t be able to pay for airport security which is necessary for our safety. With out taxation our country would continue to get bombed and we couldn’t fight back.
