I definitely recall that gasoline tax is often a fixed amount per gallon, so it seems like it could be a flat rate tax.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like the gift tax could be a flat rate tax, right? It might depend on the amount gifted.

I remember practicing a question about different types of taxes, and I think excise tax might not be flat rate since it can vary by product.

I think flat rate taxes are usually the same percentage for everyone, so maybe the general income tax isn't one?
