9 Comments on There was “some bitching over a tiny 3% tax”
Opposition to high taxes is part of the American psyche. Until President Trump, we were losing the battle in our own front yard.
I doubt any other country has such broad opposition to taxation among its citizens.

Braddock got a good taste of N. American infantry tactics near Pittsburgh. Too bad for the British he didn’t live to tell them about it. The Brits would have been wiped out complete by the French and Indians if it wasn’t for Washington leading the retreat, something he did a lot of a decade later.

Our tactics have changed. Instead of fighting we bitch and hope our next vote will change things.
