I could get comfortable only if this tax change is a constitutional amendment and it includes **both**

1. an upper limit on each form of tax (that is not very high)
2. a constitutional limit on federal spending along with a “no cost shifting” clause so the fed can't force anyone (States, us, anyone) to spend on their behalf

Without a controlling amendment, we are simply adding one more tax.

I prefer making the income tax unconstitutional. Then there is no doubt and no wiggle room.
