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"... |
Wow, RightInNYC just pimped your hillbilly a
ss all over this thread. Let me ask you this, what does being a police officer have to do with knowing the tax code and the the interpretation of constitutional authority to lay taxes?
I didn't even try to delve into this. I only addressed the idea of uniformity in taxation. I never ever addressed whether or not our current tax system was in line with the intent of our forefathers or whether or not a particular section of the amendments gave any particular authority.
You are so desperate to "show everyone you own me" or something that you will come out here and parade around like some kind of jack
ass. "Look at me! I owned JeffMerriman! Look how stupid he is!" But look at what you post. You took what I posted and extrapolated to the point that your moronic rambling prompted someone else to jump all over your
ass. I'll be the first to admit, I don't really understand the controversy between the intent of the constitution and the way the government has determined it's authority to lay taxes the way they do. And judging from you post, you really don't either. Luckily I didn't put my junk out on the chopping block to get it hammered like you did. Then again your idea of getting dressed up for a date is to wear you clean wife beater and run a comb through your mullet.
I'm sorry you are not as cool as you would like to be. But listen, this is the internet, and it's not really all that important. If I were you maybe I would spend less time getting my head punched in and more time working on developing at least a mildly decent personality.
