The Two Boston Tea Parties…
28 July 2008
How much did The Boston Tea Parties cost the Brits? Yes, I meant the plural. Did you know that there were 2 Boston Tea Parties? The first one took place in 1773 when “The Sons of Liberty,” protested the 3 cents per pound of tea tax. The second one took place in 1774. These two parties cost the Brits the equivalent of 3 million bucks today!!!!
The forefathers knew how to get the Brits’ attention… hitting them where it hurts most, the pocket.
