(Of course by the time the rates may have changed!) I always say our streets should be paved with gold!<br /><br />We have to pay for plates for our little trailer...around $35 per year...pay property taxes on boats, and if you have a dog, you pay a tax on it....but not on cats.<br />Oh, and counties within the state of Indiana can have a wheel tax...I think they set the rate. I know one of the nearby counties used to charge $5 per wheel.<br /><br /><br />All states are not like this...but really was confusing when I moved to Indiana.<br /><br />Also, we pay federal income taxes, and then we have to pay taxes on our income to the state of Indiana...some states do not have state income taxes...Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06832295732819342873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-30289254907901257842012-09-26T21:48:17.669-04:002012-09-26T21:48:17.669-04:00I can't wait to see the finished quilt.

I liked it better when I didn't know how much I was being taxed because it was included on the price tag.

It was going to cost $16+ to return a $19.99 blouse. Just not worth it.
