We need independence! Britain is making living in the colonies unbearable. I've been trying to keep up with my taxes, but they are just too high. Britain doesn't live under the circumstances we do, they should not be able to tax us unless we have a opinion in the matter.

I also dont understand why we are forbidden to move West, we got all this new land and all these new taxes, and for what? They're is more fertile land there, my plantation could thrive there... We need to make these decisions on our own and not let Britain make them for us.

I do not understand why I had to share my household with a red coat and it was very unpleasant, I had to provide food and water, that I could hardly provide for my family in the first place.

The British have been deciding what we should sacrafice, even though it barely affects them. This is ridiculous! We need to make our own decision. We are the only ones to know the flaws in the parliament we are living by. Please consider the reasoning behind my decision to support the independence from Britain.

sincerely,
