Current Events > 1770's USA: No taxation without representation!

(+) Yeah! (+)

2020's USA: Pay your taxes or go to jail. Also, only 538 people get to vote.

The key part of that is "Without representation"

Unless you're DC where you've never been given representation and are currently larger than multiple states.

1770s USA: Fuck the monarchy. Fuck having an unaccountable king. Remember how hard it was to try Charles I? Aint having none of that here.

2020s USA: Convicting a former president is a bad look. Can the president even break the law in the first place?

1950s USA: Lets help overthrow Irans democratically elected government.

2020s USA: Iran really needs to become a democracy.

>I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms.
>Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion.

I'm fairly certain that Americans pay more taxes today than the original tea tax that inspired the revolution
