Read the Sixteenth Amendment.

“ARTICLE XVI. The Congress shall have the 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.”

And i will clear that up for you. The 16 amendment was added in 1913. So taxes on income was never intended until the democrats said we needed them.
