They didn't always take it out of checks. That was an "emergency" war measure that was passed during WWII. It was supposed to be rescinded after the war, but of course many Americans are such fools and they just let Congress get away with keeping it.

Any wonder why there's a deficit? They can't get it and spend it fast enough -- the bastards!
