"The federal income tax didn't come into being until 190X."

This is relevant only if that were the only federal tax, it is not. What, do you think that the government was all volunteer until the "temporary" income tax was instituted? Remember Shay's Rebellion? They went to Washington to ask that federal taxes be lowered. It didn't work, but there it is.
