The Cato study confirms my statement that it was Professor Hart that first proposed tax withholding in testimony before Congress.
And the sad fact is, withholding could be done away with via executive order. No congressional debate, no supreme court decisions...
Just think, if there were no withholding and wage earners had to pony up the money monthly, the reaction would make the Boston Tea Party a mere footnote in history by comparison.
Wishful thinking, I guess. Sigh...
