Be sweet like sugar and pay the tax
The solution to all of our problems
The Sugar Tax of 1764
As you may know, after the war, we have been in debt. This is your chance, as the colonists, to help us financially.
This tax is a necessity because...
First of all, this tax will help to prevent frauds who think it is okay to import foreign sugars to our Majesty's dominions. These frauds have also imported rum, molasses and syrups!
Also, as you all know, we were put into a lot of debt after this war. Every time you pay this sugar tax, you are making a big difference! You all are helping us get one step closer to being out of this debt.
Sugar YES PLEASE
Just buying one pound of sugar is making a big difference!
King George
The king would like to express his gratitude for cooperating at this time of money loss. With you buying sugar you are helping our Kingdom bit by bit! Keep on buying that SUGAR!!
