How to use "Overtaxes" in context?
Overtaxation is a form of taxation where taxes are levied in excess of the amounts necessary to finance public expenditures. A government that taxes more than it spends can run an annual budget deficit, which can damage the economy. When a government exceeds its revenue targets, it may resort to borrowing, printing money, or raising other taxes in order to bridge the gap. Nations with large budget deficits are often referred to as being in debt.
A common example of overtaxation is the United States' federal income tax system.
