Partly true, the Federal government got a LOT of money via tariffs on imported goods.
came to say this
what happened in 1913 that changed?

Is that a rhetorical question? Or could it be that is the year of the Federal Reserve creation and also the federal income tax?
TBF, if you wanna play "World War", you need access to serious coin.
I'm sure it's just coincidence that WWI started around 5 years later...
it's a "I'm half asleep, too lazy to verify question"🥸 I figured it was that, but for some reason I remember the Titanic & FR as '1915'
BINGO
Creation of Federal Reserve, also known as enslavement of We The People
And its never been "Federal" and there is no "Reserve" - well I guess "we the people" are the "Reserve"!
Just to set the record straight, Titanic sank 15 April, 1912.
Technically the 14th.
She struck the ‘berg just before midnight LAT on the 14th and sank between 2 AM and 3 AM on the 15th. Technically.
Yah, the 14th...just finished up on the 15th. Kinda like.. you have the baby the night of ... but the afterbirth comes out later.. The event happened. I'm glad we agree.. 😂
April 15? Same day we have to turn in our taxes.
What a coinkydink, right? They have been rubbing our noses in it since 1913.
That's why I grow my own tobacvo and make my own mead. Doing my patriotic duty to starve the government.
The government could probably run a bare bones set-up with those taxes right now, but it would never be enough for them-since they have become used to printing as much as they need/want.
Get us back on a gold standard!
Yes, and no more wacky doodle government grants.
Just tax the Kiddie Porn, no need for other sources... Naw just kill the customers...
Considering how much of the economy runs off the now uber bloated government. Thats not an easy thing to accomplish without being a major exporter.
In addition, the feds employ a lot of people, sad but true. Once the Fed gov is dismantled, where are they gonna find jobs in the private sector that lets them be slow workers, actively conspire to slow decision making, do DEI and EEO workshops every week, and fill out forms all day long?

Those poor, poor people. 🙄

That was a relatively good idea back then (tax the stuff that is bad for your health). Now, with all the crap food the US has pumped out, the government could get a ton of revenue following that (former) mindset…..I wonder why they changed course?
Basically what this is inferring is that the government was so small and it still worked! Let's go back to small governance and get them out of our daily lives!
.......are......are you guys suggesting......that the government should adhere to some sort of a budget????
Wild. Absolutely wild.
Do you guys remember the snack tax? There used to be a tax on potato chips and other snack items.
1912 and 1913, America got f*d over in many ways.
Make America pre 1913 again!!
