While I appreciate the sentiment, this would not be possible. Our government requires funds to operate and has no real ability to generate those funds without taxes.
I agree with the abolishment of income tax (and property tax) and an increase on sales tax. We don’t need to be double-triple-quadruple dipped on taxes.
With a large reduction in government size and spending, a moderate sales tax only model could potentially cover expenses. Our military is expensive, and I will never be for a downsize there.
Peace Through Strength
The Repeal of Amendment 16 would not end taxation. It will eliminate “direct” taxation. This returns Citizens Rights that were suppressed and or destroyed by Amendment 16. This is one of two Amendments that took Rights from the Citizenry. Amendment 17 was the other. A return to indirect and equal taxation returns the Citizens ability to say a tax is unfair or too extreme. Suppose you have a choice to reserve a hotel room in a city with a $20.00 per night room occupancy tax or you can stay just out side of town and pay a $2.00 room occupancy tax. The control is in the choice. Repeal of Amendment 16 returns this choice and control to We the People. It will remove government ability to take Our money and delete Our choice. Thank you for your consideration.
Want to lower taxes in a jiffy? Axe 90% of government.

That would do it until a new administration. That is why I promote the Amendment. Have a Blessed Day
Congress never listed the subject citizen of the 16th. It does not apply to you and me. Congress makes the law. Income tax is misapplied and misenforced by the criminal syndicate masquerading as government.
Elimination of IRS / Reduction in Taxation Proposals a summarization of What most Citizens don’t know!
This is a partial list of Policies listed under Economy:
“Abolish the IRS, Simplify The Tax Code, end Self Employment Tax, Flat Sales Tax, End Property Taxes, Veterans Should Be Tax Exempt, IRS Dismantling, End Federal Income Tax in Favor of National Sales Tax, No Tax on Homes or Land After Payoff, No Taxes for Seniors, Rev. Al Sharpton should be paying taxes, Eliminate Capital Gains Tax on Housing, No Capital Gains Tax, One Time Roth Conversion Plan, Estate Tax, Taxes Paid to the State not Federal Government, .1 Cent Tax on Stock Market Transactions, Stay at Home Mom Income, Property Owners Taxation, No Property Tax on Primary Home, Implement a National Consumption Tax Effectively Eliminating IRS and Federal Income Tax, Less Government Intervention Eliminate Taxes for Small Business, Student Loan Payments are Tax Creditable, End the IRS by Implementing a Flat Sales Tax, Abolishing of Property Taxes, No Federal Tax On, Tax Elimination Strategy, Tax Remittances, Simplify the Tax Code Eliminate the IRS, Raise IRS Reporting Limits on Casino Winnings, Raise Casino Jackpot Amount W2/ Taxes, Replace Income Tax With a National Sales Tax on Online Sales, End All Inventory Tax, Pre Tax Student Loan Repayment, Flat Tax, Simplify Tax Policy, End All Income Tax, “
Each of these Proposals fail to attack the Root Cause of ALL Our Taxation Policies. 1913 Amendment 16 was passed and gave the government UNLIMITED Taxing authority.
Sixteenth Amendment
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
Under Amendment 16 the government can establish a UNLIMITED, UNEQUAL Tax on anything government defines as income!
Please understand the above listed Tax Policy Changes will not work. They are ALL dependent on a current Administrations ideologies and ability to change them where Taxation is concerned. A new Administration could come in and change or dispose of each listed Policy.
Please consider this proposal to amend the United States Constitution Amendment 16:
This proposed amendment would eliminate direct taxation and restore the Founders concept of indirect taxation in the United States. Some examples, Indirect Taxation equals NO Income Tax, Property Tax or anything other than equal Sales or Stamp Taxes.
This would restore the original sprit and Protections of Our Constitution Reestablishing Citizen control over taxation. Before Amendment 16 in 1913 government could not apply direct taxes on the Citizenry. Therefore Amendment 16 is the root cause of Our taxation problems. Repeal is mandatory and would solve 95+% of the suggestions listed above and on this sight.
Repealing Amendment 16 will end the tyranny of taxation as it pertains to Property Ownership. Currently you effectively do not own Property. If this was not the case you would not fear loosing your Property when you are unable to make Property Tax payments due to sickness or other unexpected expenses. Family farms would no longer be in jeopardy because of Property Taxes. These changes would apply to all Personal Property. There would be no unequal Income tax or other employment related taxation or taxation on savings & retirement.
In short, Repealing Amendment 16 will end the punishment for working, owning and saving. Citizens would again be allowed to say NO to taxation they feel is excessive or unjust. An example would be planing a vacation. You could choose between a location that has a State / County $20.00 per night Occupancy Tax versus a location that had a State / County $2.00 per night Occupancy Tax. The control is in the choice. Locations with extraordinarily high taxation would see receipts fall and go to locations with lower tax rates. The key is in providing the Citizens with choice and equality again. You may not like the tax but at least you know the person standing in line in front of you has paid the same tax you paid no more and no less. Choice and equality in taxation are what I believe the majority of Citizens are looking for.

Harts / likes are great but votes count. Please click the link (light blue) and vote for:
Look, I agree on repealing the 16th amendment, but can you cool it with the spamming? You just spammed your own post FFS.
Also: federally prohibiting property taxes should probably be a separate amendment.

Thanks, I will try that We are also working on a Merge Proposal for several topics. Thanks for your help, Fred
