    I just finished it for like the 10th time. Lincoln and Grant were two of the top 5 Americans that ever lived.

    Lincoln was a piece of shit
    Is this an attempt at whooshing me @MikeDamone ?
    Nope. Fucker was a piece of shit
    Can you expand on this opinion? I’d like to hear more.
    I would too. My high school history teacher was the only other person I’ve ever heard speak ill of Abe. Lincoln did things like suspending Habeas Corpus, etc., but I hardly think that wipes out everything he did while in office.
    Knowing what I know of @MikeDamone i think the first income tax in our? History might be the culprit.

    Fun fact. And it was only levied on the high income earners.

    Income Tax: The Revenue Act of 1861 levied a 3% flat rate income tax on those with an annual income at or exceeding $800. In 1861, only 3% of the population earned more than $800 per year; as such, the tax enjoyed relatively widespread support among legislators.
    Of course, that's how they were able to dupe dumbfucks like you into supporting it. The tax will only be levied on rich people swearsies. And then guys like you support it and the next thing you know it's being levied on everyone.
    Killing 300,000 Rebs to preserve the Union and free the slaves wasn’t cheap. Income tax went away for nearly 50 years once the war was one.
    But when they brought it back how did they sell it?
    Didn't you scream that 47% of people don't pay federal income tax Bob? Now you say that everyone pays federal income tax? Which is it Lil lyin Bob....

    As usual you change you "facts" to meet the objective you are seeking.

    You know, I initially thought of putting this thread in the Record Shoppe, but now that’s it’s turned into another cat fight over taxes I’m glad it’s in the Tug.

    Did you expect anything else?

    To be fair, I didn't realize that was the start of the income tax. So I actually learned something from this thread.

    Better than tarrifs and all the battleships we built between 1909 and 1921 were expensive as fuck.

    Why are you lying Bob?
    You're right Hondo, it's not levied on dead people or people who don't work or drug dealers. Another BIG win for the pathological liar.

    And it's a documented fact that Trump's team met with a Russian team to discuss giving DNC emails and Hillary emails to Trump.

    So triple down on your lie (read my last post you obviously missed). You do realize that families that make $40k don't pay federal income tax right? I seem to remember an argument that you still obsess over where you bitch about how many people don't pay federal income tax.

    Do you have access to history books? That’s what I thought.
