feb 3, 1913 - 16th Amendment

Description:

The 16th Amendment gives Congress the power to collect income taxes.

This not only expands Congress' list of enumerated powers, but also increases the Federal budget. This allows congress to propose bills that would have been too costly without income taxes.
