I learned about excise tax in elementary school. The teacher told me it is extra tax for special items such as alcohol and cigarettes. Some call it the "sin tax".
"Oh that will probably never apply to me", I thought.
Not so. Look at your mobile phone bill. Why is it so expensive? You are paying a big percentage in excise tax!
Wow, how much the government is silently collecting this money... so many users, for so many months? I wonder why no one ever complain about this.
Also, I think the phone industry should stay away from contracts... no one wants to be bind, and everyone knows the cheap phones are just ways to lure you to contracts.
