Well, Marshall did say that - regarding a bank. While a tax -could- be used to destroy any body with financial holdings - in principle..whether or not it does or is actually used to do so is another matter entirely. Sort of like how cops -could be- used to provide security..or they -could be- used to shake a town down. Thankfully, the fed isn't taxing religion - just business transactions, property, etc. Do you also feel that this grants the federal government the "power to destroy" the citizen? Is that how you would describe our individual situation?
Hey, what if paying taxes was against my religion? Could I opt out? Being forced to pay a tax would surely be prohibition then, eh?
