The 16th amendment gave them the right to impose a direct (unconstitutional) and unapportioned (unconstitional) tax on the income of the American people.
Let's say I accept that.
So... where is the law they made in response to the amendment giving them the right to do so.
The amendment isn't a law creating taxation.
The amendment is the granting (albeit unconstitutional) to impose a direct & unapportioned tax on the income of americans.

To start with their is no such thing as an unconstitutional amendment. An amendment to the Constitution is by definition a changing or adding to of the Constitution.
Under the 16th Amendment when Congress passes a law determine what percentage of your income they will confiscate, that is the law that says you must pay. In addition to that the IRS under the Treasury Department is given the authority to collect those taxes.
