Well if You run across it let Me know otherwise. One time I call the phone company (several decades ago) asking for details on all the Taxes and Fees on My bill.
After going through about 6 or so “Supervisors” I finally got an answer.

Most of them are to pay for the War of 1812...

That’s what I was told anyway as I never kept checking.

Actually, I believe that tax was for the Spanish-American War. it was repealed in May, 2006. See The Spanish American War Tax (1898-2006)? - Tax Foundation
