>>Last I checked there is no federal property tax and no federal sales tax either, so no double taxation there as well - different taxing entities<<

I pay federal gasoline tax of 18.4 cents/gallon with money on which I've already paid federal income tax. Same taxing entity.

I pay state sales tax with money on which I've already paid state income tax. Again, same taxing entity. "Double taxing" happens all the time.
