It would be preferable to have no Americans paying income taxes, however, if we must have an income tax, then EVERYBODY should pay it, or does equal protection mean anything?

When you buy anything in this country you are paying part of the corporate income taxes paid by the manufacturer, or the tariffs paid by importers.

They pass those taxes on to you!

NO ONE ESCAPES TAXES

Still the federal personal income tax is a primary source of class envy and abuse. It's a failed federal program and should be abolished.

I don’t think ANY of us should be paying income tax.

Earnings should not be taxed.

Get rid of the 16th amendment and gut government down to a constitutional level. Then, and only then can we talk about raising money outside of what the Constitution says can be collected.

Don’t get me started on property taxes.. Think you own your home? stop paying the taxes to find out who really owns it.
