Dictatorial monarchy.
King passes law that colonists have to buy certain products being produced in other parts of the
empire.
Also levies a sales tax on those products that the colonists are forced to pay.
Colonists have no representation in the government, no means within the political system of
petitioning for a change in the law or giving voice to the unfairness of the situation.
Mob justice, violent protests, and eventually armed rebellion result.
Next Question.

John Hancock, after being confronted by a British customs official, orders the crowd to "Teach
him a lesson, tar the bastard". Hancock and Samuel Adams then look on while the official is
tarred and feathered, to the disapproval of John Adams. The scene is fictional and does not
appear in McCullough's book. According to Samuel Adams biographer Ira Stoll, there's no evidence
that Samuel Adams and John Hancock, who were opposed to mob violence, were ever present at a
tarring and feathering, and so the scene succeeds in "tarring the reputations of Hancock and
Samuel Adams". Jeremy Stern writes that, "Despite popular mythology, tarrings were never common
in Revolutionary Boston, and were not promoted by the opposition leadership. The entire sequence
is pure and pernicious fiction."According to Stern, the scene is used to highlight a schism
between Samuel and John Adams, which is entirely fictional.

Congrats, you discovered our Founding Fathers' secret: We weren't founded by enlightened
thinkers, we were founded by smugglers.
The whole republican system we tacked on as an afterthought was pretty nice, though.

A more accurate term than "representation" would be "consent", and that taxation without consent
is tyranny. This phrase is derived from the Magna Carta, which has had immense influence in
classical liberal philosophy in the British Isles.
The existence of a delegate in Parliament or Congress that "represents" your geographic territory
does not necessarily imply consent, especially when one considers the fact that consent implies
the existence of the option to opt out of taxation, which contradicts the very essence of
taxation as politically legitimate extortion by the state.

For a nation founded on "freedom" (lol chinese, american indians, blacks, women anyone else) you
yanks sure seem eager to submit all that hard fought liberty because the gents on the tele say
it's good for you.
