It’s not the same Constitution that the 13 colonies made. The Republican-Democrat war amendments centralized power in Washington to outlaw slavery and discrimination. The Income tax has made slaves out of everybody and the direct voting of Senators has made even the existence of the Senate itself pointless. Repealing those alone would be worth the price of admission.

You are correct of course but IMO this thread is pointless as the OPs concern has been addressed so many times over posting it again appears more like trolling than an attempt at serious discussion.

.
The income tax ammendment never even came close to ratification. Every state that took it up offered a different text to ratify.

The president can call attention to this fact and order the IRS to discontinue income based operations.
