And when they decided it was time to get the money train rolling they created the 16th amendment in 1913 to make income tax constitutional.

Our political leaders have the ability to do whatever they want. All they have to do is amend the constitution and it's a done deal for anything they want to do.

And again..."mass killings" Timothy McVeigh killed 168 people including 19 under the age of 6 in a split second using a home made bomb.
We're gonna have to have a lot more mass shootings this year to catch up to what he did in the blink of an eye.
Why does have to one way or another? Thats not how the world works.
