In a newly started game I cast Propaganda on my first city.
It had three essence, so I should get three Gildar from Propaganda.
At 40% tax rate I got +2 Gildar (from the village) +3 Gildar (from Propaganda) *40%= 2 Gildar.
At 0% tax rate I got nothing.
This would indicate that Propaganda is taxable. Something which the spell description doesn't mention.
Agreed, the spell should reflect the tax stuff 
Edit: Spell description should reflect the tax.

As it says in the patch notes
The tax rate is applied to the entire cities gold production, running with low taxes is much harder now
Which translates to: taxes now affect all gildar gains.
Hm, might be I am just too used to the old version, hope they explain it in the tutorial, or somewhere for new players to figure out how it works
The current interface is a little vague >_<, filled with numbers and no description or anything.
From the city:
From overland map:
I might be picky, but I support 100% clear and understandable game mechanics.

There are a lot of tool tips to change to indicate that the tax rate determines the amount of gildar gained from any source. So the understanding is that 100% tax rate gives you what the description says and a 50% tax rate gives you half of the current tool-tip value.
So the understanding that the tool-tip is how much the building is making, and thus, we are taking a particular tax from that buildings income. This definitely needs some description as to what is going on otherwise you are going to have a lot of unhappy customers.
If only that was the case... many countries would need not tax anything else.
I think it is the case. I'm not sure it makes those countries' populations happy, though.
