Good point about not overthrowing the government because you don’t get your way . . . on tax cuts. What were those neo-Confederate totalitarian crazies like George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and Patrick Henry thinking?

If King George had only cut the tax rate on stamps and tea, what a great guy he would have been, right? :)

Actually, King George III was a pretty good leader compared to what we have today - I can’t imagine him (Unlike Jorge the II) pushing the American colonists to import millions of spanish speaking foreigners and give them welfare and freebies paid for by American taxpayers.

America was the least taxed "civillization" on earth at the time of the revolution. And let's face it, the Brits had just saved your asses from just being French :-)
