good lord you are an idiot
I've been called worse.
Doesn't mean the OP isn't still a statement of historical fact.
But whatcha gonna do?
Just another statement of historical fact for your consideration.
In July 1862, during the Civil War, President Lincoln and Congress created the office of Commissioner of Internal Revenue and enacted an income tax to pay war expenses (see Revenue Act of 1862). The position of Commissioner exists today as the head of the Internal Revenue Service.
The Revenue Act of 1862 was passed as an emergency and temporary war-time tax. It copied a relatively new British system of income taxation, instead of trade and property taxation. The first income tax was passed in 1861:
The initial rate was 3% on income over $800, which exempted most wage-earners.
In 1862 the rate was 3% on income between $600 and $10,000, and 5% on income over $10,000.
In 1864 the rate was 5% on income between $600 and $5,000; 7.5% on income $5,000$10,000; and 10% on income $10,000 and above.

the OP is not a historical fact and leaves out the wilson tariff act, which if you were being honest, you would have to admit it was liberals who created the actual agency, not some temporary war funding agency
Who gives a fuck who created it and when.
Today it's a monstrosity and needs to be radically changed, if not abolished.
But hey, lets just deflect all the problems going on today with idiotic distractions.

And the founder's opted away from direct taxation and instead sought to tax commerce to run government.

Absolutely - sales tax.
A consumption tax is the only fair way, er legal way.
Either that or Amend the Constitution to allow income tax... You'd have to change the Fourth Amendment tho..
The government can tax business transactions - but not businesses or individuals.
The Fourth Amendment forbids the sizing of property without cause or a warrant.
