The 16th Amendment was NEVER legal...2/3's of states must ratify any NEW amendment to our Constitution....only 3 states voted for the 16th amendment....why should we now have to repel it?

Why isn't the truth about this illegal amendment put forth...what's so hard about telling the truth....going through this process is ridiculous!!!

This is wrong on both counts. Per the US Constitution, 3/4 of states must ratify an amendment. Furthermore, 38 states(out of 48 at the time) ratified the 16th amendment.

This thread is devolving from its unserious beginning to the absurd.

Whether you are right or wrong on that point is UTTERLY irrelevent. It is a fact of life.

Following your lead on this leads us to nothing but endless arguing about events of a century ago, with NO CHANGE.

So, PLEASE quit leading people down that stupid unproductive...nay, COUNTER-productive path!!

I've never heard this before. Can you provide some details for those of us that are still ignorant to many historical facts and events?

Your argument about the illegality of the Sixteenth Amendment is a well-known fraud.

Of course, you can always refuse to pay your income taxes and raise this argument as a defense. The 7th Circuit disagrees, so good luck getting SCOTUS to hear you out and toss the Income Tax.
