What is unconstitutional about taxes? Was the whatever amendment not ratified by Ohio, or is it that only foreign-source income is taxable? Or maybe only payments from the gov't to employees of the gov't are taxable?
There is an argument made by many tax objectors and tax-haters that the govt has grown into something intrusive far beyond what was contemplated by the Constitution. I'm not going to cite the myriad bases and individual arguments upon which these endless criticisms are based. You can read most of them at the Heritage Foundation and Cato Institute websites or any Ron Paul for President blog.

I don't disagree with you and Wonk that fucking around with your taxes is illegal and probably not too smart. Where I disagree is that it is immoral.
