The Stamp Act (It should've lasted Forever)
Okay, if you didn't get the joke at the top, I don't blame you. It was lame. Darn, my small bunny intelligence/comedic genius. Anyways, steering away from the corrupt system we call Fed Ex, US Postal and Forever Stamps, we shall go back to 1765, ye all! (Get it? Ye all? Y'all? Never mind.)
So, this one dude, decided to ignore all those petitions from Virginia except a few and taxed the colonists into the muddy ground that they call 'farmland'. Anywho, there were about 54 different rules and regulation in this 'Stamp Act', causing a serious threat of revolt. You know why? You wanna know why? No? Oh... well, I'll tell you anyways. There was this Seven Year War that completely decimated the English economy, as they were so far in debt. (No, you cannot mortgage a country.) They taxed even the English in Britain, so you can expect how happy-happy-joy-joy the citizens are feeling. (If you didn't know that was sarcasm, you are stupid.) Anyways, it was the first attempt to stick government on the Colonies in America. Now, its time to interview our very dead, very famous founding father!
Hancock: Well, I say, this is an insult. Just because the government has funding issues, doesn't mean he can tax the pants off the colonists! This is an outrage, the tax is so high. Now, if you excuse me, I need to get back to being dead.
There you have it :)
