"Not true of the wars. They are "supplemental" and without revenue support. And an incremental addition to the deficit."

It's just true of THIS war. Taxes were raised in WW I, WW II, Korea and Vietnam, specifically to help PAY for the wars.

The income tax was first introduced in 1862 as a temporary tax to help pay for the Civil War.
