    Pedantic fact alert:
    It wasn’t the “taxation”, that’s half of it,
    it was “taxation without representation”.

    “Franklin smote the ground and out sprang—George Washington. Fully grown, and on his horse. Franklin then electrified them with his magnificent lightning rod and the three of them—Franklin, Washington, and the horse—conducted the entire Revolution all by themselves.” - John Adams
