Why An Income Tax is NOT Necessary to Fund the U.S. Government
Good read.

The Income Tax: Root of all Evil
Should the wealth I accumulate end with me? When I die, should the government get it? If I can pass my pocket watch to my son, why can't I pass my wealth? I made my money for me AND my family. True, there are people who might not have the intelligence others posess. No one said life is fair. But in America, we do have a level playing field for educating yourself, taking risk and making money. The government can see to that thru the constitution. What it shouldn't do is take from one and give to another. I didn't earn my living to support other people. They are not entitled to my income. That is not what promote the general welfare means.
not really, a valedictorian in a new orleans inner city school a few years ago graduated with a 14 on her ACT. if you aren't familiar with the act, you need at least a 20 or 22 out of 36 to get into community colleges. No matter how hard people try in public schools in places like this they still aren't going to get a decent education and are still set to a life working minimum wage. all while the trust fund kids get sent to 30k a year schools and waste the opportunity.
I don't believe in the death tax at all though and find it horrendous. I just wish there was some way to make trust fund kids be responsible on otheir own and help out the unfortunate kids who were born into extreme poor with drugged out parents who don't give a fuck
Then it is incumbent upon society to hold the parents that don't 'give a fuck' responsible.
And it is also incumbent upon that same society to show them a better way and Government get out of their way. Government however, has put in so many roadblocks upon society to make it nearly impossible.
The result usually is beneficial to Government and their power over society to that end. Hence? Control.

Thanks bro! I love Mises but missed this one somehow.
The government doesn't have the right to practice religion.And yet, the first amendment prohibits government from restricting religious speech, but it is in every public school and event.
Freedom of religion means freedom from any sort of government influence on religion.which did you say was unconstitutional again? Oh that's right. only the forcing of someone to pray. You're right there, but you always seem to ignore the second half of that. There is no freedom FROM religion in the constitution, and atheism is not the default setting.

The founders intended for the government to be able to get as big as the problems it had to solved.we have strayed from the intent of the Founders when this Republic was formed

It takes a big government to keep big corporations from gaining monopolies and screwing the people.
WHY do you keep quoting those whom LOST the debate? I get it.To provide for the...general welfare...Congress will be the only judges in the matter.

I wouldn't bet my last welfare check on it Micky if I was you.
When all government, domestic and foreign, in little as in great things, shall be drawn to Washington as the center of all power, it will render powerless the checks provided of one government on another and will become as venal and oppressive as the government from which we separated.

No, ending these programs would be constitutional... if we elected to do so
By "we" I assume you mean the degenerate, sorry, socialist parasites who cling to the out-dated and out-of-step democrat party that would turn America into a complete welfare state, reliant on the few entities who would continue to produce for the benefit of the swelling numbers of sucklings who refuse to take responsibility for their own lives until the country ceased to exist as the Framers of the Constitution anticipated - the "flounders," as you like to call them, right?
As is having them also constitutional according to our current interpretation of our laws.
"Our" laws? Are you trying to pass yourself off as an American? LOL!!
The world belongs to the LIVING, not to the dead.
Which has absolutely nothing to do with anything.
The flounder fathers wrote a document that did NOT ties our hands with specific laws.
The "flounder fathers" would have put you and your ilk on a slow boat to England to join your comrades in your love of tyranny over the human spirit.
They understood, like those of you who imagine that there is a right "literal" interpretation of the Constitution do not, that one cannot bind the FUTURE generations to the vision of the current generation.
Then what was the purpose of a Constitution that has served us well for over 200 years and has made us the envy of the civilized world, where most of the rest of the population of your ideal "socialist" nations are yearning to come to escape the dirty, diseased, backwater lands they live in?
Most of us would not be able to VOTE, if we'd stuck to the constitution that our floundering fathers originally wrote.
I'm sure you are one that would have been disenfranchised in those days when the vote was a priviledge earned by loyalty to the Constitution, pride in country, willingness to defend America, and abiding love for one's own home; not given to any riff-raff who managed to crawl here for what's in it for him. Your kind are the ones who are gnawing away at the foundations of this great country for the purpose of the ever-discredited institutions of collectivism, socialism and communism.
Now who here wants to come out in favor of only allowing a very small percentage of the population to vote?
I will be proud to state that I am in favor of disenfranchising all the people on welfare, those with reduced mental abilities, criminals, lay-abouts, and all other leeches whose only interests lie in what they can get from the taxpayers.
Who here wants to come out in favor of once again allowing slavery?
Now you are becoming ridiculous and asinine for the purpose of stirring emotions. If we adopt your type of government, we will all be slaves to the state as you well know, but refuse to admit. To what end do you desire to change a system that has worked magnificently for all these years and is now beset with the likes of you and your comrades in an effort to change us into your and Obama's vision of a communist utopia?
THAT would be a literal interpretation of the constitution that our floundering fathers passed.
It is my personal opinion that your "floundering fathers" are the same ones who are presently stirring up all the turmoil and wars in the Middle East.
Now I know some of you would be in favor of those changes to our society
Junior, you don't know anything except what your radical socialist teachers have beaten into your "skull full of mush."
I also know most of you who would like thise things, don't have the balls to openly admit it.
Like I said, you know very little, if anything, about life and politics.
Smart men those founders of oursThe founders intended for the government to be able to get as big as the problems it had to solved.
