Declaration of Rights and Grievances
The Stamp Act of 1765, which Parliament imposed on the American colonies, placed a tax on paper, legal documents, and other commodities; limited trial by jury; and extended the jurisdiction of the vice-admiralty courts. The act generated intense, widespread opposition in America with its critics labeling it “taxation without representation” and a step toward “despotism.” At the suggestion of the Massachusetts Assembly, delegates from nine of the thirteen American colonies met in New York in October 1765. Six delegates, including Williams Samuel Johnson (1727–1819) from Connecticut, agreed to draft a petition to the king based on this Declaration of Rights.
Lets push for a "No taxation without representation" law of the land. If one is denied the right to vote, or ones vote is not counted, then no taxes will be required of that citizen for 4 years. No Federal, State of Local taxes, including sale taxes. With this law in place, we could almost see Universal Voting in the USA. That would be a great thing for our party.
