Even a packed SCOTUS cannot work around this one: A WEALTH tax, like the INCOME tax, is a DIRECT tax against the people of the individual states.

The US Constitution expressly FORBIDS the US Government from levying a DIRECT tax. That is why the 16th Amendment had to be passed.

The 16th Amendment explicitly mentions an Income Tax … not a Property Tax.

Obama is not a natural born citizen and Obamacare was found to be a “tax”.

Anything can happen.
