Taxes are a big part in the United States．Most Americans pay city taxes，state taxes，social security（安全）taxes，sales taxes…and the list seems endless．The biggest tax for most Americans is the incomes tax．The personal income tax is called a“progressive tax”．Because it takes more from those who earn（掙錢）most．For example，a person who earns about$3，500 a year，will pay a tax of only about 3．5％of earning，but if the same person earned$85，000 a year，he would pay an income tax of 35％．Over years the incomes tax has become more and more difficult for people to understand．Almost one half of all Americans now have to pay experts to prepare their tax reports．In fact，preparing taxes and giving tax have become a big industry（工業）in America．
