But it's so outdated now
So in essence that was what our senate and house were
That makes sense
Senate were the lords (state representation)
House of reps the house of commons(?)
To think, if we'd just given you guys a devolved parliament we'd have avoided the messes we're both in
Commons is a joke too
Ehhhhh
We had our independence streak right from the get go
I know - I was being facetious haha
Yea it would have happened anyways
Maximize Liberty
Minimize Authority
Decentralize Everything
Taxes were such a small part of it
Americans were more against the soldier lodging and other repressions. Tea tax was a minor part
Ironically right after the revolutioj tea was the only thing taxed
Rum taxes were a bigger issue, IIRC
But commons, commons is bollocks. The Members of Parliament are elected to represent their constituency, but instead are forced to follow party lines by the Whips or get nowhere in politics
There's no room for free thought or democracy
@Fitzydog rum wasnt as big an import
Don't forget the Whiskey Rebellion
Also, after you guys decided to make tea by putting the water in first we couldn't forgive you
Whiskey rebellion was 1791
I don't, that's just heretical
Yea i dont either
But I do use common teabags like a pleb
But also tea kettles arnt common here
I drink coffee like a Chad
Even the electric ones
@Agamemnon's Death Mask that's why the monarch needs to flex their authority <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>
Teabags were invented accidentally
Tea bags were invented to piss off the brits
They were initially portion sized tea leaves
So like the word "Aluminum"?
Just don't
loooooool
It's worse because aluminum is technically more correct
Because that word changed 3 times
After the second americans said fuck it
Yup. You got aluminum right but colour has a u dammit
Cull-oo-er?
HOLY SHIT 33%
