Blogger's Note: As I write this post I am feeling anxious about government overreach. We are currently suffering from the consequences of Mr. T's unfair tariff scheme which put me in mind of the historic consequences of imposing taxes and tariff on the good people of this county. A past KING saw the error of his ways when the people rose up against them. He forthwith lifted the excessive tax on goods, being persuaded that such taxes and tariffs harmed the natural flow of commerce and angered the free people. May Mr. T take a lesson from history.
From New York,
May 26, 1766
Long live the
KING, whose Sacred Majesty so graciously assented to the wise measures of his
Ministry, who (undeniably) were actuated by virtuous and noble principles for
the good of the common cause of liberty, the wellbeing of all his loyal
subjects, and benefit of the community, in repealing an act call The STAMP ACT;
which, had it taken place in these extensive colonies of America, would have
been attended the most direful consequences to the inhabitants thereof.
