Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: Something I have to do every year is pay taxes . One way I pay taxes is through sales tax . Every time you buy something , it adds a little bit of money at the end of the receipt for the government , and this money is called " taxes " ! The sales tax on things changes as you go from state to state , and usually is more in states where things are generally more expensive . Where I live , sales tax is 6.5 % , meaning it will add on 6.5 % of whatever price you are already paying . It is a small amount that not many people notice , but it helps the state government to do a lot of duties to help us out ! These taxes help pay for homeless people to get food stamps , for libraries to stay free , and for people to go to school . Question: who was going to get paid? Option1: the author Option2: Goverment
Output (English): Goverment
