"Which is otherwise known as...wait for it...taxation. And you can put that on your learn-to-spell list for next week."

Gee thanks for the update on that one. Wow, did not know that. I did know however that Jefferson did not feel that the New England states should secede during his Presidency. And wait a minute, I think he didn't have a problem with collecting taxes during his Presidency, even tariffs. Yes, I'm sure of it. Google that one if you feel differently.

Considering the hoops you've jumped through to deny the fact that Jefferson was referring to the exorbitant tariff system, that's the first honest thing you've said all day.

And wait a minute, I think he didn't have a problem with collecting taxes during his Presidency, even tariffs.

If you can't see the difference between a tax rate of 8% and a tax rate of 65%, there isn't anything more that can be done to help you.
