As we begin to talk (dream about changes) about Income Taxes this is a good reference. I know it is long, but history has a lot of fingerprints from both democrats and republicans.

Did you know that everyones taxes were forgiven in 1943 but not for the reason you might think.

The first income tax legislation was titled: ``An act to reduce taxation, to provide revenue for the government, and for other purposes.''

You will find a lot of other gems here also,

Throughout this period the Treasury Department consistently portrayed the withholding proposal as providing taxpayers ``a way of meeting their tax obligations with a maximum of convenience and a minimum of hardship''

They cared so much,it just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy:)

if the elite can successfully establish its definition of a situation as a crisis, it can undertake without direct opposition activities which might otherwise be considered gross violations of regime boundaries.

How are you gentlemen? Ping. Bookmarked this one, some good info here.

If the GOP made witholding voluntary it would be the beginning of the end of the federal government as we know it.
