Why don't we get an itemization of Fed and State taxes as part of our payroll stubs? Is there some verbiage in the tax code? I Googled, but found only hits related to itemizing deductions.

We get itemized:

utility bills
grocery bills
telephone bills
cell phone bills
home repair bills
restaurant bills
car repair bills

Would any of us pay these bills without knowing exactly what we were paying for?

Hell, we even get an itemization of the nutrients in our food.

But no itemization of our taxes. And we just pay the bill month after month....


What gives? Are they afraid if we knew what we were actually paying for that we might amend our bills? Maybe stop paying altogether? Or at least demand corrections, just like we'd do if we were overcharged at the grocery store?

What do y'all think?
