 U.S. Treasury - Fact Sheet on the History of the U.S. Tax System
The War Revenue Act of 1899 sought to raise funds for the Spanish-American War through the sale of bonds, taxes on recreational facilities used by workers, and doubled taxes on beer and tobacco.
Another revenue act was passed in 1918, which hiked tax rates once again, this time raising the bottom rate to 6 percent and the top rate to 77 percent.
Beyond the rates and revenues, however, another aspect about the income tax that changed was the increase in the number of income taxpayers from 4 million in 1939 to 43 million in 1945.

 sugar act
The Revenue Act of 1764, also known as the Sugar Act, was the first tax on the American colonies imposed by the British Parliament.
Just as important, however, were the Act’s profound implications for the colonial judicial system, for the Revenue Act of 1764 allowed British officers to try colonists who violated the new duties at a new Vice-Admiralty court in Halifax, Nova Scotia, thus depriving the colonists of their right to trial by a jury of their peers.
While a handful of colonial leaders recognized the grave implications of the Revenue Act, it was not until news of the Stamp Act reached the colonies that the seeds of rebellion were planted in the hearts and minds of the broader public.

 Brad Humphreys, testimony on Ballpark Revenue Amendment Act, June 12, 2003
Under the current financing proposal, no existing tax revenues will be used to pay for the proposed stadium; the existing level of government services will not be affected.
But keep in mind that new tax revenues will be used to pay for the stadium; any tax-financed increases in the existing level of government services will be affected.
This is not a false choice - if you raise additional tax revenues, you can spend these new tax revenues on better libraries or a new hospital; alternatively, you can spend them on a new baseball stadium so that billionaire owners can make players millionaires in the District.

 USTR criticizes WTO ruling against U.S. revenue act 08/28/00   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
U.S. Trade Representative Charlene Barshefsky says she disagrees with a ruling by the World Trade Organization (WTO) that antidumping provisions of the U.S. Revenue Act of 1916 are inconsistent with WTO global antidumping rules.
The Appellate Body upheld the panel's findings that WTO antidumping rules are applicable to the 1916 Act and that the 1916 Act is inconsistent with these rules because the civil and criminal penalties provided for in the 1916 Act go beyond the responses which those rules authorize.
This provision is commonly referred to as the Antidumping Act of 1916, but despite its popular name, the 1916 Act is not the antidumping law under which the Import Administration of the Department of Commerce applies antidumping duties.
