And before we know it, maybe the US Supreme Court will declare the income tax unconstitutional. Well, I can dream, can't I?

Actually you can't even dream it. The Supreme Court can find LEGISLATION unconstitutional, but it can't find the constitution itself unconstitutional. The income tax comes to us via constitutional amendment which themselves become part of the constitution itself.

Good point.

Obviously Congress is not about to repeal the 16th Amendment.
