wow...it’s amazing how the feds have become the new King George although much worse as far as the destruction and taxation of this great country. We will prevail, eventually.

At least King George fought to protect the sovereingity of America from the French and indians. The French had claimed all of north America and allied themselves with those crazy indians, some of them anyways. But the English troopers along with the colonists defeated them and America became sovereign! It was stunning to defeat them with all of their indian allies, but then the King demanded that the colonists, which were very successful and well to do, pay excessive taxes to help pay for the war debt. Big mistake.
