I don’t understand!! The federal government was never supposed to be a retirement. It was about civic duty. That’s the problem everyone wants to retire off the taxpayers. They don’t follow the constitution anymore. I challenge you to actually read the constitution. They will say it how you interpret it but it’s a simple document. The men that wrote it did it that way on porpoise. They could have wrote a lot more words to it but they didn’t because they knew lawyer could twist the word for interpretation. Read the part were the lawyers say they can tax the individual income at the federal level. It only says they can tax the STATE for the different income levels in it. They use to just go off of population and tax the STATE per head count. No where in it does it say they can tax the individual directly.
The STATES use to collect the taxes and they State government would pay the federal government. Well the states kept taxing at the same rate not giving any money to the federal government. So now the people are double taxed.
Look up where to head supreme court Justice at the time said the 16th amendment gave the federal government no more power than it already had. Well before that they could not tax the individual directly and they don’t really have the power now they just do.
Before you say I’m crazy look at the constitution yourself and tell me how you think it reads. That is the 16th amendment. While your at it look up the army clause where it says the federal government can only leave a standing army for 2 years only in war time. If not in war time its supposed to be dissolved and turned back to the stated.
