Why Do We Pay Taxes?
Paying taxes is an important part of keeping cities, states, and the country running. Readers will learn about the different things taxes pay for--such as schools, police, and roads--and explain why taxes are the way we pay for these things. Each chapter answers a different question about the purpose for taxes or how they function; by the final chapter, readers will understand that everyone's contributions add up to the things they see and use every day.
