Tax is not included in listed prices in the USA.

It's infuriating.

The state that I lived in there had a tax at restaurants. Each town was allowed to add up to a percent to that. Some did 0%, some 0.5% some 1%. Also, alcohol was taxed at a different rate.

So basically you had no idea what the actual cost for food would be when you ordered.
