Federal Income Tax
Income taxes in the United States are a primary source of revenue for the federal government, funding essential services such as national defense, infrastructure, and social programs. The U.S. tax system is progressive, meaning that individuals and businesses pay higher tax rates as their income increases.
A Brief History of U.S. Income Taxes
The first federal income tax was introduced in 1861 to help finance the Civil War, but it was later repealed. In 1913, the 16th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified, granting Congress the power to levy an income tax without apportioning it among the states. This led to the creation of the modern Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the income tax system still in place today.
How U.S. Income Taxes Work
Income taxes apply to individuals, businesses, and corporations. The U.S. operates on a graduated tax bracket system, with rates ranging from 10% to 37% for individuals based on taxable income. Businesses, including C corporations, are taxed at a flat 21% rate, while pass-through entities like LLCs, S corporations, and partnerships are taxed at the owner’s individual rate.
