I didn't answer you because I don't have an answer for you homie. I wish I knew what to say to fix it I don't I just know we didn't have income tax til 35 and **** was ok.

You need to do some reading before spouting off.

History of the Income Tax in the United States

The US population has more than tripled since 1913. And defense and infrastructure costs have risen exponentially. Defense spending in 1913 was $427 million dollars. In 2010 it was $847 billion. That's just about a 2000% increase.

Roxy, stop saying 1935. That's incorrect. The 16th Amendment, which made the income tax the law of the land, was passed in 1913. See, this is what I'm talking about. I've already pointed out that you're wrong on this one little thing, and yet you're still spouting it. If you can't get that one little detail correct, then why should we, or you for that matter, believe that your arguments are built on logically solid ground? How do we know that all of the information that you have built your political stances on are not likewise built on lazily researched bunk?
