IRS Cannot Be Abolished Without Repealing the 16th Amendment

The following is a comment I left at Sodahead concerning the IRS and income tax system. It has to do with abolishing the ^{16th Amendment} and getting rid of the most feared and hated agency of the federal government. It is time to end income tax at federal AND state levels. There are states that are doing just fine without it, and those states do not charge sales tax on FOOD. Levying income AND consumption tax AND excise tax and fees is DOUBLE TAXATION – taxation issues like this encouraged American colonists to declare independence.
