I think the income tax and its IRS henchman are heinous, the 16th Amendment should be repealed.

Yup. Sales and property taxes are more than enough to fund constitutional federal, state, and local government

I'm going to have to disagree with you on this one; property-tax is evil. Why? Because it is the de facto assertion that you cannot own land, and therefore cannot be self-sufficient as a valid method to protest what your tax is used for... IOW, if you don't like what the government's doing and refuse to pay your "protection" they come and kick you off your land.

I'd much rather have a sales tax and/or a flat-rate, no-exemption, no-credit, no-rebate, no-exception income-tax.
