https://www.dividend.com/taxes/a-br...85, dividends would,dividend tax rates to 15%.
The background of federal income taxes begins with the passage of the 16th Amendment to the United States Constitution on February 3, 1913. This amendment states: “The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.”
This relatively vague text has allowed Congress to impose its power to tax anything that it might consider income, which has included dividends paid by corporations to its shareholders. There has been a lot of controversy behind this interpretation; many believe that dividends should not be accounted in this income power.
