I think we need a fair, straight tax. |
It figures you have no comprehension on what part of the constitution allows for an income tax. Imagine that, a person employed to enforce the law doesnt even have moderate knowledge of the constitution...
Guess what Jeff, article 1 section 8 isnt it. That just allows for things such as a sales tax, excise, tariffs, etc. Ever wonder why there wasnt a true federally sponsered income tax until 1913???

The 16th amendment is IMHO illegal only due to the fact it was ratified in an unlawful manner. This notion is constantly bounced back between congress and the Supreme Court to no avail.
Some interesting precedents: "Brushaber v Union Pacific Railroad", "Redfield v Fisher", and "Jack Cole v Commissioner"...
