A Partial List of taxes

You forgot a few...

Rain tax (Rainwater that falls onto non-permiable surfaces you own is estimated and a tax applied to you for it)

Fat tax (Taxes on specific foods such as candy, soda etc. that are deemed "fattening" by government - and thus subject to additional taxation over and above standard sales taxes)

I probably could name a slew more, but the point is already made - we are taxed to death....

Wait - we are taxed on that too - the Death tax......

Many of these taxes require that one file a form.
As a rule, the forms are over-complex, and require vast amounts of record keeping, AND TIME.

F.eks.
What is the registered weight of your vehicle?
What is the unladen weight of your vehicle?
How much fuel did you buy in X?
How many loaded miles did you drive in X?
How many empty miles did you drive in X?
Followed by: "Now YOU figure out YOUR tax".

Multiply variations of this process by the number of nations/states/provinces traversed.

Simple solution to that, if you don't like it don't do the job.
No one forces people to work as a haulier do they.
