Nonsense. America became a kakocracy once Arizona was made a state. At that point there was no place to escape and the Progressives and elites implemented the income tax. That was the end of republicanism. We got the 16th, 17th and 18th Amendments aka the Progressive Amendments.
Those three blows killed the republic and made us a kakocracy. Naturally, the plutocrats responded by using government as a tool to maintain the status quo. Ironically, under normal conditions politicians demand the status quo, yet for a fateful year they determined to reduce it via the 17th. Go figure.
If you could undo one year of American legislation April 1912 to May 1913 would be the perfect time.
