Boston Tea Party

Analysis of Potential Party Name

Comment below to add your thoughts concerning this prospective political party name.

HISTORY

An act rather than a political party, colonists rejected taxation without representation by demonstrating against the British East India Trading Company, throwing boxes of tea overboard as a protest against the Tea Act in 1775. It was a pivotal event leading up to the Revolutionary War.

MERITS

The historic reference could work for a group seeking radical release from taxation without representation. It might also work as a protest by those who believe elections have been stolen and representation has been lost.

DRAWBACKS

The reference to Boston is too localized. The Tea Party movement is associated with the Republican Party and Libertarianism.
