Eh, I 'unno about that.
You lot in America only left because we asked for you to pay some taxes after funding a war to defend you from the Spanish
Lotsa perfectly good tea got wasted because of terrible decisions.
You know the taxes were lower than the taxes people paid on the homeland and half that of other colonies
Yet you little oinkers couldn't have that
So, there were more taxes than before.
Which is unacceptable.
There were taxes because we saved your ass
Even if the taxes were cheaper we got taxed on more stuff
They were much cheaper
Also, seemed to have worked out for us pretty well. *shrugs*
The taxes were raised a tiny percentage
And, in turn, we saved your asses a couple of times. So...
Yeah. Itd have been much better if you stayed tho :(
Imagine
No
Inter galactic British empire
Hnnnnnnnnng
America would have no guns right now
Nah that's not how the empire worked
sargoy of applebees
Government was almost entirely devolved. The only connection was the crown and the magna carta
One of the two you took anyway
Oy, nuffin' wrong with Applebees. @Rich Off WACKD
Well, the freedom was also being wrenched down on by said crown, too.
Well this is one hell of a good sandwich
When tho
**Sandwich**
Canada was doing fine till it started the Liberal bs recently
No barbaric suppression of its citizens by the crown
They actually loved it
There's literally no reason it wouldn't have worked
@Chris McLean Baron Lord of Hell go do un gravity
You greedy mutts
(Taxes count as wrenching down on freedom of operations by the crown.) There's a huge bit of history that gets shifted with that hypothetical.
Too much to say "literally no reason" and be honest.
Youre kinda forgetting that the taxes were only levied on the tiny export industry
