The tea industry is receiving a bailout from the public, not the government.

You're really a condescending little asshole, aren't you.

Dickhead, I don't disagree with this. It was about taxation without representation. As I read it, the argument SU raised was that if the amount of tax is reasonable then why have a problem with it? It left out the issue of representation. Whether or not the actions at the Boston Tea Party were justified is a separate issue - I'm talking about the sentiment behind the act.

It's sad to see what has become of Britain.
What an awful place. They traded their liberty for porridge. |

Yes, but they still have Scotland, the Lake District, and the National Trust. And London. London's pretty great.

The biggest difference between these and liberal demonstrations is these people actually pay taxes.
