War was part of the reason behind some of these, though.

Status: offline 		Yup! Well, they talked about it as a way to help pay for the War of 1812.

Then in 1862 to help pay for the Civil War. Just for a few years.

Again in 1894. But the Supreme Court struck down these plans (mainly concerning how they were constructed).

So in 1913, Congress passed the 16th Amendment, allowing today's federal income tax.

Your turn again, dc!

(a) This quartet is topical.

(b) Sadly, the quartet is far from unique.
