#1 I'm pleasantly surprised, but I suppose the SCOTUS will overturn this ruling. Nothing, certainly not the Bill of Rights, can interfere with the government revenue. A good way to shut someone like Rangel or Schumer on the PATRIOT act is to say "How about we just give them the powers that the IRS already has?"

I don't agree with the arguments that the income tax is illegal, though.

#2 This is the next big domestic windmill for the rightwing and libertarian political elements in America. Not so much the tax code which will be the lead instrument in the parade but the strong bellowing of rights infrigement in the big brass section!

#3 I expect the Sax Section of Rational Tax Policy to take up the beat at some point.
