Cracking knuckles. I learned today that the sixteenth amendment, which grants the state the right to tax its citizens, wasn't legally passed into the constitution. An attorney named Micheal Louis Minns checked all the original documents from the states which were claimed to have supported the amendment and found that each one violated the legal process in at least two ways. I always thought taxes were immoral anyway. The precursor to the constitution, the articles of the confederacy, didn't allow taxes. That idea didn't work out though.
