This video is intended for my GOVT 2302 class with Prof. Mueller through Weatherford College online. I just noticed I forgot to include the song credits so here it is: (artist) Beck - (song) "TimeBomb"

The three levels of government represented here are:

Local - Sales tax rate can vary in jurisdictions. While there is a minimum set by the state (in Texas, it is 6.25%), local government can pile on up to 2% more.

State - License plate policy varies from state to state. In Texas, it is required to have plates on the front and back of vehicles. Some, like Oklahoma, only require the back license plate.

Federal - The United States Postal Service (USPS) originally came from the executive branch of the federal government, but has since become an "independent agency" of the US government. It is explicitly authorized in the US Constitution.

Special cameo(s?) in the opening segment by our dog, Minnie.
