The Constitution was amended as it was designed to be to allow for an income tax. I can see an argument for the same to happen for a national sales tax, but if you’re suggesting that we go back to a pre-1913 tax system, you’re dreaming.

It will NEVER happen.

Are you saying you are content to accept and live under what "progressives" imposed upon us in 1913?

Join the fight and start promoting the 32 word plan:

The Sixteenth Amendment is hereby repealed and Congress is henceforth forbidden to lay ``any`` tax or burden calculated from profits, gains, interest, salaries, wages, tips, inheritances or any other lawfully realized money

We are here today and gone tomorrow, but what is most important is what we do in between, and is what our children will inherit and remember us by.

No, I’m not content to stick with the status quo, which is why I want the entire system thrown out and the EXTREMELY simple 9-9-9 plan implemented.

You’re talking a Constitution Convention with a new amendment passed to completely repeal the existing tax structure. 9-9-9 falls under enough fire b/c some people don’t think it’s revenue neutral. Your idea is DEFINITELY not revenue neutral, so how do you expect to sell it?
