  1. 1) I think taxes is important...Taxes are how the members of our society pay for services we all use. Many people complain, and sometimes the tax can be excessive or for questionable reasons, but if you depend on the police or fire to protect your home, drive on roads, send your kids to school, or use any of the other tax supported services provided by our government, then you can't say that taxes aren't necessary. Taxes help pay for what we as Americans use. How those taxes are used is another question.
    2)I like the rome gods... because i would like to have super powers and be better than everybody
