No, not for that sole reason alone, but the governemnt is supposed to be funded via tariffs not an income tax.

Income taxes are not unconstitutional.

16th Amendment. One of the last times an unconstitutional practice was made to be constitutional by amending the Constitution, the way it was supposed to be done.

This was before statists figured out they could just ignored the Constitution.

If you know history you’d know the 16th Amendment was never properly ratified by the senate.

There were a lot of shenanigans with Massachusetts that no one ever brings up.
