Washington was the wealthiest American president ever. LOL if you think his revolt with his buddies was about taxes and not just cutting Britain out and keeping all that sweet piracy and slavery money.

It wasn't about taxes so much as proper representation in government. If you pay taxes you expect to have some kind of say in how things are run but England just kept dicking them nonstop for no real good reason other than the King was an idiot more interested in sex clubs than in running his empire.

It's pretty cool how the landed elites decided to wrest control from the state that guaranteed its security for their own gain and then we pretended it had something to do with individual freedom for 241 years. America, lmao

If you were still a British colony you'd have single payer healthcare, a devolved parliamentary party system, and multiple-party elections making your democratic process more accountable than it is now, lol.

However, the similarities are there. When people are stepped on repeatedly and told "I'm better than you, deal with it" there tend to be consequences.
