"Didn't we once give Britain the finger over such nonsense?"

Not exactly... The elite in America were pissed because British taxes were cutting into their take without giving them anything in return. Now the elite get lots in return from the government for their tax dollars...new laws, government contracts, political appointments etc. Of course the rest of us get screwed, but don't expect a rebellion soon. Joe Sixpack is content to sit back and let the government rape him as long as he can keep his cable TV, beer, and twinkies.
