Can you isolate a specific source (so that we don't have to go through a bunch of videos that might not even have the info) that says the Income Tax Act of 1913 was to be TEMPORARY.

It wouldn't even make sense, because the tax was passed in 1913, and WW1 did no break out until 1914, with the US getting involved in 1917.

So, the meme cannot be true.

Plus, I doubt that the original text said it was temporary, considering an income tax was ruled unconstitutional in 1895, and they supposedly passed an amendment so they could get around that. I don't think they would have made it temporary, but would be interesting if they did.

The original source text of the statute is the ONLY valid source, not some video claiming it.
