The 16th amendment -"The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration."


This helps the government to help pay for public schools needs and public services for low income people and also pay teacher since they are working for the government.
