This is before the Bost Massacre, King George III of England was irritated with the colonists in America. The colonists didn't want to pay tax on English products; for example lead, glass, paint, wine and tea. In 1768 he sent 4,000 British troops as well as a bunch of warships to the colonies to show the colonists that England was in control.The colonists were really mad with how they were being treated and obviously tensions were rising. King George III was acting like he owned the people in the colonies. The colonists were not allowed to own their own guns or have any say about their own property. Soon after the troops were sent into the colonies the people had had enough of being bossed around.The colonists were so feed up with the whole situation that on March 5, 1770 a bunch of schoolboys started throwing snowballs and calling names at a guard at the Customs house in Boston. Everything escalated and got totally out of control when the guard called for back up and somebody shot off a musket. Then more people started shooting.

There’s a whole mindset among Americans that you need to go out and get a job when here we are in an economy where we can make our own jobs. Entrepreneurship is good for our nation as a whole because it creates jobs for a local economy. So just think about this. If we eliminate the Corporate Tax, billions of entrepreneurs will decide to open their businesses here in the US. If eliminating the Corporate Tax doesn’t create tens of millions of jobs in this country, I don’t know what will.
