While the army and navy of the United states are in France making “the world safe for democracy,” Democratic (socialist/fascist) de facto President Wilson (having received an unlawful advantage of 50 ineligible Electoral votes)—without a constitutional amendment—signs the War Revenue Act:
- Increasing the number of personal “income” tax brackets from 14 to 19;
- Increasing the lowest personal rate on the first 20,000 Dollars earned from 2% to 5% of the first 5,000 Dollars earned;
- Increasing the highest personal rate on amounts earned over 2,000,000 Dollars from 15% to 67%;
- increasing many excises and including the re-establishment of excise tax on long distance telephone calls at the rate of five Cents per call; and
- Tripling the tax on corporate profits from two to six percent.
NOTES:
- This is an attack on Free Speech, in violation of Article I of Amendment;
- This is the further realization of plank number two of the “Communist Manifesto” by Karl Marx.
