Worthy of Michael Moore when it comes to misquoting the facts, I believe they did'nt want to pay taxes without Representation in the Government. If some pompous Tory or Whet had listened The "Colonies might still belong to us". Although that would have required the British Government to sucessfully Govern something immensly bigger than GB for 200 years without making a balls-up.(never going to happen)Okay guys, one more thing, this summer when you're being inundated with all this American bicentennial Fourth of July brouhaha, don't forget what you're celebrating, and that's the fact that a bunch of slave-owning, aristocratic, white males didn't want to pay their taxes
