I heard some guys did it many years ago to some big, red meanies and it ended up being a smashing success! (I hear to avoid detection, one should don face paint and loin cloth.)<br /><br /> Interestingly, Gearge Washington condemned the act.<br /><br /> One teabag may not be enough. Those guys years ago tossed the equivalent of 18.5 million + teabags. What a waste of [probably] really good tea!<br /><br /> Interestingly, the BTP might seem ridiculous at first; the Tea Act actually reduced total tax on tea and we could buy it from EIC (early form of a bailout) for less than the British could. It was the 3 pence per pound duty they railed against. I'd suspect that this was taught more over there than here, because even today the Bossy British were the bad guys because of Mean Old King George, Parliament and the Townshend Acts. I didn't know he was that old and still an excellent gitfiddle player. We wanted fewer taxes and duties, plus Hancock wanted Dutch tea!<br /><br /> If you guys hadn't had such an imperial nature and starting wars for seven years at a time, you'd had more money and wouldn't have to try to make up war debts by gouging the Colonists.</div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=41190.147&return_msg=41190.141" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="41190.147"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a41190_148"></a><div class="message" id="message_41190_148"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: fixrman<span class="message_time">21 Sep 2014 18:17</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: JonCooper <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 22 Sep 2014 07:31"></span></span> <span class="message_count">148 of 189</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41190.148">41190.148</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=41190.141#a41190_142" target="_self">41190.142</a></div> <div class="message_body"> They did vote to stay, and I see that as a Good Thing &#0153 all around.
