Are you saying that freedom from an income tax is one of the unalienable rights?

Yes. I think that while the income tax is very much compatible with its source, the Communist Manifesto, it is utterly incompatible with American freedom.

Yes. I think that while the income tax is very much compatible with its source, the Communist Manifesto, it is utterly incompatible with American freedom.

Perhaps, but taking it to the "unalienable right" level is a little over the top. I think economically, it's certainly not the best way of bringing together revenues for the government and economic growth, but somehow specific methods of accessing those revenues doesn't seem to reach the importance of an unalienable right.

The inalienable right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness is freedom from the  initiation of force, fraud and coercion. Prohibition of initiation of force, fraud and coercion respects and protects the inalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
