For example, why am I charged for ‘touch tone’ dialing? At $1.50 per line no less! Do the phone companies really support rotary dialing phones anymore? And do we need federal excise taxes plus state excise taxes plus sales tax, plus other fees and taxes? Shouldn’t that be a part of pricing?

The charge for “touch tone” dialing is not a tax or fee. It is so that the extremely poor can obtain rotary only service cheaper and be subsidized by everyone else who pays the extra for tone service.
Interestingly, in some places, if you cancel “touch tone” and tell the phone company that you want rotary-only to save money, “touch tone” will still work.

Touch tone dialing is a service from the phone company, not a tax. And yes, rotary dialing still exists.
By law. taxes have to be stated separately on the bill.
