Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't we fight a war over excessive taxation without representation?
Perhaps....but the shooting match started when the brits tried to disarm the colonists in Lexington and Concord.
About 10-12 years ago the Dims in Washington state were pushing a bill to put meters on private wells and bill the landowner for their water.
Seems it's just wasn't fair that those on private wells got free water and city folk had to pay for theirs. Fortunately the pushback was massive enough that it went nowhere.
