ON MY MIND: INCOME TAX HISTORY 101 SINCE WERE LIKE CONSTANTLY HEARING BATTLES ON THIS BETWEEN THE DEMOCRATS & THE REPUBLICANS ... how did the U.S government exist before income tax in 1913? How did we pay for things for the first 137 years? This site tells me that If Income tax keeps this country alive and supplies the leviathan that is the U.S. government, how did we have a country for 137 years before the 16th amendment was ratified? How did anything get done? How did we fight the drug war, keep our food safe, supply welfare, social security and public schools? How could a government exist without revenue from the labor of its peasants? How was it possible for the country not to collapse in on itself? Update : How did anyone have a decent life without the feds supplying them with the means to do it? Update 2: Sarcasm. Seeing if anyone knew. Income tax is slavery and a fraud, we are able to stand on our own two feet, even though we no longer die at 45 and have organized crime running the streets, even though thats complete B.S. My 4x great grandfather lived to 96, and did so with no government help or safety net. Organized crime was rampant during prohibition, but negligible in earlier times. https://answers.yahoo/question/index?qid=20070502191458AAzK1bp
