During the Seven Years War, Britain defeated the French and their Indian allies and foolishly expected the Colonials to bear at least some of the burden of their own defense, as well as the expense of governing said colonies...rather than having that burden extended to Britain at large.

Passage of bills of revenue by Parliament, when met with hysterical opposition from vituperative radicals, would quickly be repealed in order to appease the colonies as an indulgent parent would please...

I am watching Alexander Nevsky, which I ordered from Netflix. I have a bottle of Ketel One, which I am drinking out of a glass, although the bottle itself is sitting on a tray on top of my ottoman. The volume on the television is muted, because the film's dialogue is in Russian, and has subtitles anyway, so I don't need to hear any of it.
