The 16th amendment created an insane system. Fedgov taxes citizens of the several states. Then fedgov dishes out billions of grants and other fund to states IF—and ONLY IF—the states behave the way Fedgov wants them to behave. Misbehave, and you get no funds. Nevermind that the money came from the states in the first place.

The 17th consolidated government in Washington, and the 16th funded it. Twin evils.
