I was responding to your post vis a vis the 16th Amendment.

And your post is demonstrably incorrect with respect to HR 25. From thomas.loc.gov:

H.R.25
Title: To promote freedom, fairness, and economic opportunity by repealing the income tax and other taxes, abolishing the Internal Revenue Service, and enacting a national sales tax to be administered primarily by the States.
Sponsor: Rep Linder, John [GA-7] (introduced 1/4/2007) Cosponsors (68)
Related Bills: S.1025
Latest Major Action: 1/4/2007 Referred to House committee. Status: Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means.


ALL ACTIONS:
1/4/2007:
Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means.

As you can see, the Bill has been referred to the House Ways and Means Committee and 15% of 435 is 65. With 68 co-sponsors, The FAIR TAX has MORE than 15% support in the House.
