We here in America celebrate the Forth of July as our Independence Day...From England...
A Smart Ass Friend (a Liberal/Democrat) says to me the other day that, "The Only reason Americans fought the Revolution was that a group of Fat, Rich, White Guys did not want to Pay their Fair Share Tax's"...And wanted to Keep all the Money here in America and Not Help the Poor Farmers....
I almost Hit this Guy...I have found that there is 'NO Arguing' with this kind of Logic...just let the Fool Run on...I did ask him WHY he Celebrated the Day...
Oh Yes there were Tax's involved...But they were called Act's...The Stamp Act...there were quite a few...almost everything that came into this Country had an Act or Tax on it...But when the Colonists wanted a say in what was going on in the English Parliament or Had to Live by the Kings Rule with no way of Addressing these Laws...
King George III
And it was not so much of the Rich Guy's but the Average guy in the Town and the Farmers that were against the Tax's...
A small group of Colonists Disguised as Indians Raided a Few Ships in Boston Harbor and Dumped a Few Cases of Tea into the Harbor....This was the Boston Tea Party...This more or less Started the Whole Revolution and It Escalated from there...
It Encompassed the Eastern Sea Boards 13 Colonies....The Rest they say is History...
I do Not Believe It was Started By a Bunch of
Fat, Rich, White Guys...
