And a stupid people, idiots living in 1913, made this stinker of a law constitutional today by passing the 16th amendment.
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
Those morons gave gave congress a blank check. Why? Because the country was full of farmers that didn't give two farks about city folk that used paper money to survive. It wasn't their problem.
But who today can live without an income (besides Democrats)?
