What was the total % paid that brought on the tea party revolution?

Also, 50% tax AND significant inflation.

3% according to this meme. I dont have any actual reference. Memes are the new modern sources.

It was the Tea Act of 1773.

It gave the British East India Company a monopoly to sell tea in the Americas.

The British East India Company was a private company that actually governed India and had loads of surplus tea that it couldn’t sell.

The Act actually crashed the price of tea in the American colonies. There were no extra taxes, just a lot of extra tea.

The Boston protest was the fact that this was introduced without consulting anyone in the Americas.

Ah!

That’s not what we were taught in school!

Thanks for the clarification.

What caused the price to crash?

The flooding of the market with tea….

I know, not my point.

I *often* run through toll booths without paying. Never gotten a ticket. #anarchy
