Name Date ClassEconomics Activity 2Taxes: What Is Fair?Tariffs have played a major role in United States history. A tariff is atax on goods imported, or brought into, a country from another country.Britain placed tariffs on goods the colonists imported. Many colonistsresented these tariffs. The tariffs made the prices high for the foreigngoods they needed. After gaining independence, many Americanswanted tariffs. American goods would then be less costly than competingforeign goods. This would help young American industries thrive.An income tax is a tax on the earnings of individuals and businesses.The federal government first collected an income tax in 1863 to pay forthe Civil War. The Sixteenth Amendment, proposed in 1909 and ratifiedin 1913, made income taxes a permanent part of American life. Incometaxes in the United States are progressive. This means that people withhigher incomes pay a larger portion of their income in taxes.
