You are COMPLETELY WRONG in your assumption that the ‘income’ tax began to pay for WWI. UTTERLY WRONG!

And the fact is, from its inception in 1862, the vast majority of Americans have never been subject to the income ‘excise’ tax!

I said that the income tax was supposedly to pay for WWI. That is how it was sold to the American public and it was only to last for 5 years. ITS FACTUAL INFORMATION!
