Apparently that's not the issue. 16th amendment ratified or not, SCOTUS has apparently stated that it wasn't even necessary--that the government was always able to tax income from any source.
The scam was making everyday ignorant Americans think that their work wages counted as income. But the SCOTUS definition of income clearly excludes that. So we're literally all just paying taxes on our wages because...well...we're stupid.
Understood, thanks.
The 16th was never legally ratified, if they rule the process was unlawful then it falls on its own.

I don't believe it will happen, but while we're hoping.
