Despite all the work you have done you are not answering my questions and showing the actual text of the original law and what it was "rewritten" to. I have heard the accusation, I just want to see what ACTUALLY happened. Do you not have access to what i'm asking about?Those were the posts that I was responding to. Feels like we hit a wall, perhaps we are at an "agree to disagree" moment. The discussion got heated and "muddy" at times but overall I appreciate the engagement. At least you did your homework and provided substance to back up your arguments rather than resorting to petty insults and personal attacks. For that I will say thank you.Judges have the responsibility to interpret the constitutionality of law and set precedent for the lower courts and law enforcement to use while executing their duties. This often involves explaining what actions would be considered constitutional and unconstitutional. If a law or action is deemed unconstitutional then the judges may decide to rule against the law or in favor with an explanation of what is allowed and not allowed per the constitution. We on the same page?Feel free to provide other views you can back up in law or the Constitution, which are the only things judges are to consider, not redefine them on a whim or to achieve a political goal.

Also please answer my previous question about Charitable deductions, R&D tax credits, and mortgage write offs... are these also unconstitutional direct taxes in your mind?

Not only have I read the actual decisions, and articles on them, I've also had some pretty in depth discussions with attorneys I know on the topic, one works for a congressman. Most are just as frustrated as I that nine unelected judges have the final say with no checks or balances. That's why I advocate an amendment that would allow a majority of the States to nullify any court decision.

I tried to call my friend and they're out of the office today doing constituent services, I'll try again tomorrow.
