Yes, there seems to be unseemly monarchy worship going on around here. That entire inbred family should abdicate, turn over the wealth to the citizens of the country. We got our independence from them but we seem to have a crowd that misses them, worships them, fawns on them, follows their every move. Pathetic for Americans.

Mark Twain pointed out that our American Revolution made us all sovereign citizens equal to any King or Potentate.   He called on and was received by crowned heads in Europe and the Middle East.

We made our choice for freedom and Great Britain would have to make that choice for themselves.

Why do you seem to have a complex about the British monarchy.   After all this time, you should be over that.

If they get rid of the British monarchy, the Fabian Socialists, AKA Communists, will use the wealth of royalty to destroy anyone they feast their eyes on.   Green eyed envy doesn't look good on your.

I pray for the Princess as just another human among us that needs it.

The British Monarch is a national symbol. It doesn't matter if you support Labour Party or Conservatives, y'all support the King.

In America, the President is a divisive figure.

How unpleasant you are today. Not to mention totally ignorant of the topic. Much of what you say is simply wrong.

They haven't been "inbred" as you put it since the 19th c. There have been what we would call outcrosses in the horse-and-dog world for at least 3 generations now. Unlike the Hapsburgs (who of course died out due to actual linebreeding - not inbreeding.)

As for "worship" - more silliness. They're an interesting historical family and have done a lot of good, much of it by stealth without sounding a trumpet before them in the marketplace a la St. Matthew. Other than my dad serving in the British Army by accident, our last ancestor left London in the 1800s, so no particular tie to them. But their job is hard work with very little privacy, and I respect them for that.

And their wealth is largely derived from inherited, non-royal sources (Duchy of Cornwall, etc.) and property owned outright. They have paid taxes on their income since I think the 1970s, when Queen Elizabeth II voluntarily began to do so. Unless you want to decree that all the wealthy in the country "turn over the wealth" -- in which case you're simply a communist and I don't know what you're doing here.
