There's a reason for the Tea Party movement: people not happy that rules and regulations are being imposed essentially without the people's consent. We've seen this before--the period between 1763 and 1776, when the American colonists loudly protested against the actions of the British government, who imposed taxes on the American colonies to pay for the cost of the Seven Years' War with no input from the American colonists.

So how close are we to 1776 again. I have two words: Stamp Act, ignore the law, boycott it harass the tax men. Tip the whole thing over through civil disobedience. Dammit we are Americans not wimps and wussies.
