A major topic of constitutional abuse concerns taxes. Constitutional government requires revenue, and constitutions provide for revenue collection, but only in certain ways. When taxes are not constitutionally authorized, or are collected in ways that violate constitutional rights, then the foundations of constitutional republican government are threatened.
If money is wanted by Rulers who have in any manner oppressed the People, they may retain it until their grievances are redressed, and thus peaceably procure relief, without trusting to despised petitions or disturbing the public tranquility.

"Congress has taxed INCOME, not compensation."
This is just one of MANY rulings where the Federal courts have consistently, repeatedly, ruled that payment for labor (wages, salaries and compensation for personal services) is NOT taxable!
"Income within the meaning of the 16th Amendment and the Revenue Act means, gain ... and, in such connection, gain means profit ... proceeding from property severed from capital, however invested or employed and coming in, received or drawn by the taxpayer for his separate use, benefit and disposal."
"There is a clear distinction between `profit' and `wages', or a compensation for labor. Compensation for labor (wages) cannot be regarded as profit within the meaning of the law. The word profit’, as ordinarily used, means the gain made upon any business or investment -- a different thing altogether from the mere compensation for labor."
A much earlier ruling stated very simply: "... one does not derive income by rendering services and charging for them."
"There is a clear distinction between profit and wages, or compensation for labor. Compensation for labor cannot be regarded as profit within the meaning of the law."
