We're not that helpless. Simply start a movement for a constitutional amendment that will outlaw this kind of broad taxing power. I find it hard to believe that we can't get enough of the public behind an anti-tax amendment to make it viable. It's time to turn lemons into lemonade and turn this crisis into an opportunity. This overreach of taxing authority could be the argument we need to get a good anti-tax amendment passed.
All 27 Amendments have been ratified after two-thirds of the House and Senate approve of the proposal and send it to the states for a vote. Then, three-fourths of the states must affirm the proposed Amendment.
“Simply start a movement for a constitutional amendment that will outlaw this kind of broad taxing power.”
Yes, that would work. However, personally, I find it EASY “to believe that we can’t get enough of the public behind an anti-tax amendment to make it viable.” Since when have conservatives controlled 2/3 of both houses of Congress as well as 3/4 of the states?
