Repeal of the 16th is a lovely notion.
But since we don’t seem to be able to reliably win presidential or congressional elections, it’s pretty much a pipe dream.
Repealing (or passing) an amendment is 10x or 20x harder than winning a simple election.
Why don’t we concentrate on electing a president and building a super-majority in Congress, and then talk about possible amendments? You gotta have a 2/3 majority in both houses of Congress, anyway, to pass an amendment.
(There is an alternative approach, but it’s never been successfully used, and there’s no reason to think it would be any easier than the congressional route.)
You do not need to win Congress or the Presidency.
The Constitution gives us the right to hold State Conventions and force Congress to do our bidding.
This is a process of education. Once a person ‘gets it’ on the FairTax, there is no turning them back.
That is why I say to read the link above and to STUDY, STUDY, STUDY and ASK QUESTIONS.
This is not a game anymore. You are asked to study and become informed. You need to make a committment.
