Soon tax day in America,but in a way,an insult to Thomas Jefferson who's birthday is today.

Soon tax day in America(on April 15),but in a way,an insult to Thomas Jefferson who's birthday is today(on April 13).How ironic it is,that Jefferson's birthday falls so close to tax day.Jefferson,of course,would have been appalled by the income tax.Indeed founders would appalled at income tax,this is why Article one,Section 9 in the Constitution of the United States of America prohibits a direct tax and this why the 16 Amendment was passed in 1913 to allow an income tax.
Jefferson of course,was emphatic of rights of men and liberty,so well documented and beautifully express in the the Declaration of Independence.Here are some Mr.Jefferson's stirring words from Declaration,"When in the Course of human Events,it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another,and to assume among the Power of  the Earth,the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature's God entitle them,a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation.
We hold these Truths to be self-evident,that all Men are created equal,that they are endowed by there Creator with certain unalienable Rights,that among these are Life,Liberty,and Pursuit of Happiness-That to secure these Rights,Governments are instituted among Men,deriving their just powers from Consent to Govern-"  Mr.Jefferson goes on in the Declaration,but it is strong believe in liberty and that government gets it's power from people or another words Consent to Govern.And that's key to freedom.
