The Irony of America's Very Existence!

And look at how much more we have now than we did back then

It wasn't about how much. It was about representation.

Well that's true. However, representation still isn't a very good reason, it was most likely a setup reason to rile up the common folk.

Knowing that, I made the meme. The Americans did revolt over taxes, and ended up taxing more than the Brits were taxing them.

Take one look at New York and California...
Who in government in those states are raising and voting up more taxes?

Hey, at least our taxes are going to good use. And, with us being a developed country and all, we can handle the taxes.

Except if a person rents(property tax) or does a lot of driving for work(gas tax) then it's increasing rents and gas prices.
