Answer:

C. Big Business Leaders

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sixteenth Amendment of the Untied States Constitution:

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.

Anyone with lower incomes were negatively impacted by the taxes issued by the Sixteenth Amendment. Therefore, your answer would be big business leaders.
