Taxes are collected at the federal, state, and local levels in a variety of ways. Tax revenue in Pennsylvania is used to pay for state roads, public schools, state law enforcement, water infrastructure, courts, and other things that impact the lives of most Pennsylvanians. While no one enjoys paying taxes, it is a trade-off that allows the state as a whole to provide essential services and maintain order. Pennsylvania sales tax is six percent and beer tax is $2.48 per barrel--just to name a few. Click on a link below to learn more about Pennsylvania tax laws.
