Sales taxes are levied by the state. California has sales tax of nearly 10%. New Hampshire has no sales tax. So, yes, sales taxes are levied by state governments.

According to Wikipedia. ..

Sales taxes in the United States are taxes placed on the sale or lease of goods and services in the United States. In the United States, sales tax is governed at the state level and no national general sales tax exists. Forty-five states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and Guam impose general sales taxes that apply to the sale or lease of most goods and some services, and states also may levy selective sales taxes on the sale or lease of particular goods or services. States may also delegate to local governments the authority to impose additional general or selective sales taxes.

Since January 2017, 5 states (Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire and Oregon) do not levy a statewide sales tax,[1] while California has the highest state sales tax with a base rate of 7.25%. (the territory of Puerto Rico has a higher 10.5% value added tax since April 2016).[2][3] In some states such as California, counties and cities impose additional sales taxes, and total sales taxes can be over 11%.

How did the earliest people's adapt to their environments. List 2 ancient people and explain how each adapted to their environme
Doss [256]
Not much is known about how the earliest civilizations adapted to their environments except through their cultural habits (i.e. religion, games, etc). The Mayans took advantage of the surrounding rain forests and developed a very heavy agricultural and farming civilization, focusing in the cultivation of maize, beans, squash, peppers, avocado, and other important foods. They created a system for tearing down the rain forest in order to make room for their fields and left the watering of the plants up to the gods as they believed that the sun and rain were entirely divine. The Aztecs, however, settled in a more marshy land that was difficult to cultivate. Instead, they relied on military power and strength to conquer other civilizations and steal their food to keep their civilization alive. They did a bit of growing on their own, but not to the same scale as the Mayans, developing water ways and canals to transport goods from conquered cities to their capital.
