Wrong again.  I meant 16, 17, and 18, exactly as I said.  The "early 20th century" part should have provided a clue; amendments 13, 14, and 15 were passed in the 19th century, not the 20th.

Maybe you could start paying attention to what people actually say, rather than what you incorrectly assume they meant to say?

-- ok Prohibition is dead. The 17th & 19th Amendments have to do with voting rights so l can see their connection to Jim Crow. So l repeat- what does income tax have to do with Jim Crow?

Unless I am mistaken, Warren responded to a post by Galen talking about property rights. Warren said these have declined since the 16th amendment. I'm not sure what the connection is to Jim Crow in their minds.
