Declaration of Independence

of the United States of America

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the Powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

But why? Really?

We did it because we were tired of being taxed without representation.

Weren't you just a bunch of rich people?

No, we were a bunch of people who were tired of being taxed without representation.
