Evening Tim, I'm not out to change 'American History'....but... 'Memorial Day and all!!' this is a rumor i heard.... >>The 'real' reason 'ole Sam Adams' (harvard grad) and the boys dumped those 342 boxes of tea into the harbor was... They were already engaged in a enterprise to sell tea on the 'black market'...and the British were... trying to muscle in on their territory...by... selling tea at a 'lower price' even with the tax!!!! So in order to protect their 'Market Area' the guys 'dumped the tea', creating a 'shortage'... used the tax as an excuse....and then... tried to blame the poor indians!!!! Their strategy worked!!....the rest is 'history' Imo, the 'Boston Tea Party' was the 1st..... 'reverse merger' ever recorded...it worked!! and went on to give us... The 1st Ammendment...IRS....etc... Sam Adams was a 'visionary' he knew that.. the 'peoples' love of tea would not last...so... in later years he started a.... 'Brewery'...and his buddy 'Paul Revere'... bought some land in Kentucky and started.... a horse farm. pvt jat
