I just hope they make sure to remove the "roots" of the oppressive income tax, by repealing the 16th Amendment.

That way, just like when you eradicate poison ivy, it won't come back!

It's up to us to make sure it gets done properly and with express prohibition of all income taxes not just repeal of the 16th(otherwise taxes on wages and employments remain possible):

H.J.RES.61
Title: Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to abolish the Federal income tax.
Sponsor: Rep Johnson, Sam [TX-3] (introduced 6/24/2003)      Cosponsors: 5
Latest Major Action: 9/4/2003 Referred to House subcommittee. Status: Referred to the Subcommittee on the Constitution.

That will never happen with out a viable replacement tax system in place first, and total public support to achieve the necessary 2/3rd of both Houses of Congress plus 3/4ths of the states necessary for ratification.

Dont they just print the money? Therefore the US Government does not need to raise money thru taxation. We were clearly told that some years ago, and things havent changed. I'm sure you have read (and understand) Beardsley Rumls 1946 speach.
