Also, decisions about the constitutionality and legality of the income tax are made by federal judges, who derive most of their salaries from income tax. How do you think they're going to decide, especially when there's a constitutional amendment that explicitly permits the income tax?

Arent federal judges appointed for life with a salary that cannot be reduced by Congress? Seems like there is little incetive for them to vote in favor of the income tax based on where they get their income. And how do you know that most of their salaries comes from income taxes? They were being paid in full before the income tax was introduced, so I assume the same would be true of the income tax was to disappear.
