Nothing. It gives the government power of taxation. And it guarantees free speech.
You could say that the IRS uses taxes to regulate what people can or cannot say, and IMO that would be true and unconstitutional. However, the IRS has plausible deniability. It could simply argue that it isn't taxing people based on what they say, it's allowing people to NOT be taxed based on what they say (or agree not to say).
