Stoneman, it might help if you would look at a few U.S. Supreme Court cases, such as, BRUSHABER v. UNION PACIFIC R. CO., 240 U.S. 1 (1916). See what it has to say about the Constitution and direct taxes.

BRUSHABER v. UNION PACIFIC R. CO., 240 U.S. 1 (1916)
240 U.S. 1
The various propositions are so intermingled as to cause it to be difficult to classify them. We are of opinion, however, [240 U.S. 1, 11] that the confusion is not inherent, but rather arises from the conclusion that the 16th Amendment provides for a hitherto unknown power of taxation; that is, a power to levy an income tax which, although direct, should not be subject to the regulation of apportionment applicable to all other direct taxes.And the far-reaching effect of this erroneous assumption will be made clear by generalizing the many contentions advanced in argument to support it...

No Capitation, or other direct, Tax shall be laid, unless in Proportion to the Census or Enumeration herein before directed to be taken.

Thus, We the People do not owe a direct tax, period.
Thus, it is the IRS making frivolous arguments.
