People often refer to taxes in terms of their being much too high. in reality, they are probably even higher than you think, because in addition to the federal income tax, there are many other federal, state, and local taxes, including sales taxes, inheritance taxes, state income taxes, personal property taxes, real estate taxes, and others. these are just some of the most obvious ones.
a. taxes are much too high.
b. we pay more taxes than we may realize.
c. inheritance taxes and real estate taxes are unfair.
d. some taxes are hidden.

b) We pay more taxes than we realize

Explanation:

We may come to believe that taxes are too high (a) because we believe that some taxes, such as income tax, take away a lot of money, but we are not really considering the other Federal, State and local taxes, which together would be higher than the federal income tax separately.

It is true that some taxes may seem unfair, such as inheritance taxes or real estate (c), but considering them unfair does not necessarily establish that they are too high.

Similarly, believing that some taxes are hidden (d) would not be enough to state that taxes are too high.

Therefore, the statement that would best represent this section would be that we actually pay more taxes than we think (b).

it is a part of john locke's natural rights popular during the age of enlightenment that people had inalienable rights to life, liberty and property. this was reflected by thomas jefferson in his declaration of independence as rights to life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

another line in the declaration of independence is that people have certain rights just because they are human. humans are capable of obeying the three natural rights john locke mentioned making them governable by these laws and therefore entitled to these rights as well.
