Ok you smart Anons!
How does Trump actually pull this off? How does he abolish income tax?
The house and senate would have to agree to this correct? All the D's are going to say no.
How many Rinos are going to say no as well?
The only way I see this. The miltary would need to be behind the scenes holding a gun to their heads.
How say you?
What are your thoughts on this?
NOTE: I actually proof read this time :)
The 16th amendment would have to be repealed by a Convention of the States or 2/3 of both houses of CONgress. So no - a regular law couldn't change it.
That’s not really true. The amendment just says that Congress can tax income. It doesn’t need to be repealed or modified to not tax income, you simply stop taxing income. Other forms of tax were already allowed under the constitution. To prevent an income tax from being reinstated by mere statute, you’re correct, though. We need an amendment that reverts back to taxes being either direct and apportioned or indirect and uniform among the states.
