Read the declaration of indepedence, it spells out exactly WHY they rebelled against Britain.

Sadly, many of which are now a part of OUR government.

To the above guy...

Obama won't raise taxes on those making $250,000 or less...so no need to worry. Unless your making above that amount of course!

Answer 4

Well to Britain we were looked at as terrorist. Same as all these muslim groups. In the American eyes Britain looked like the big ruthless country with a unbeatable army. So in my eyes how the Jews(Britain) are treating the Muslims(Rebels) I would not feel bad for the Britain. 3 reasons was Freedom which we dont have anymore, No tax's which has sky rocketted and No foreighn policy.

Answer 5

There was no representation in parliament.

taxes.  I hate them now as well.

Oh, the rich people give the jobs to the poor, and they're already carrying most of the tax burden.
