Repeal the 16th Amendment! - The Firearms Forum

Hey Shizamus, I figure you'll like this one. There's an online petition to repeal the 16th Amendment... the one that authorizes income tax.

Hey Sniper, sure I like this one.

It was not properly or legally ratified. But I don't think it
matters whether it was or wasn't since it is merely
an enabling act.

If we stuck to the Constitution as written, we would have: no federal meddling in our schools; no Federal Reserve; no U. S. membership in the U.N.; no gun control; and no foreign aid. We would have no welfare for big corporations, or the "poor"; No American troops in 100 foreign countries; no Nafta, GATT, or "fast-track"; no arrogant federal judges usurping states rights; no attacks on private property; and no income tax. We can get rid of most of the cabinet departments, most of the agencies, and most of the budget. The government would be small, frugal, and limited.

And wouldn't that be a scarey thought: a government that actually works for its people.

Where would all the profesional political types go? Would they have to get real jobs and try to support families like the rest of us? All on a limited budget. It might make for a great reality show.
