It does not limit taxes to duties, imposts, or excises. Otherwise, the Income Tax would be Unconstitutional.

The 16th Amendment fixed that and added income taxes to those allowed.

What about Property Tax?

There are no federal property taxes.

What about the stupid obsolete Phone Tax that still exists? That one covered by the Constitution?

That's an excise tax.

There are no federal property taxes.

But the "Fair Tax" could be used to create one, taxing property owners on the imputed rental value of their homes.
