Things That Are Not In the U.S. Constitution
Have you ever heard someone say, "That's unconstitutional!" or "That's my constitutional right!" and wondered if they were right? You might be surprised how often people get it wrong. You might also be surprised how often people get it right. Your best defense against misconception is reading and knowing your Constitution.

A lot of people presume a lot of things about the Constitution. Some are true, some are not. This page will detail some of the things that people think are in the Constitution, but are not.

If we lived by that document the people running the country would have been hung for treason 10 times over.

It's a dead document...practically useless nowadays. In fact of the entire structure of the government wasn't built upon its instructions...those in office would have burned it an danced around it like wild indians....

Look up the history of it's ratification. Wasn't completed. Income taxes are completely illegal if it weren't for the illegal misconceptions of the public and congress.

There's a federal statute that gives the meaning of the word "source" but the guy that dared to post it on the internet got thrown in prison for doing it.

"Source" as it relates to the income tax, does not mean any where near what most "taxpayers" think it does.
