In 1894 an income tax was created and struck down by the Supreme Court. On July 2nd 1909 Congress passed what would later become the 16th amendment. It was never legally ratified, but it was fraudulently ratified by Philander Knox on February 3, 1913 (The same year the Federal reserve was created).

Both the Federal Reserve, and Income taxes have wrecked America and both were created under the Taft administration. Taft is widely accepted as the single most corrupt President of all time...with the possible exception of George W. Bush.

Technically the Federal Reserve Act (blatantly unconstitutional) was created under Taft, but was enacted under Woodrow Wilson's administration. It was enacted on December 23, 1913 right before Christmas with barely enough people to make up a quorum. Woodrow Wilson signed it into Law because his adviser (Colonel Edward Mandell House) told him too.

Later, Woodrow Wilson realized what he did and said...

[quote=Woodrow Wilson]"I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated governments in the civilized world. No longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men."
- Woodrow Wilson
