We were discussing how to sell bullets online when Matt asked what an excise tax is..

An excise is “a tax upon manufacture, sale or for a business license or charter,” according to Law.com’s Legal Dictionary, and is to be distinguished from a tax on real property, income or estates.”

In the United States, the term excise means: (A) any tax other than a property tax or capitation (i.e., an indirect tax, or excise, in the constitutional law sense), or (B) a tax that is simply called an excise in the language of the statute imposing that tax (an excise in the statutory law sense, sometimes called a miscellaneous excise). An excise under definition (A) is not necessarily the same as an excise under definition (B).
