They Tax .......... "So that the whole of our property may be taken by this American Government, by laying what taxes they please, giving themselves what salaries they please, and suspending our laws at the pleasure ...... In this scheme of energetic Government, the people will find two sets of tax-gatherers - the State and the Federal Sheriffs. This it seems to me will produce such dreadful oppression, as the people cannot possible bear. The Federal Sheriff may commit what oppression, make what distresses he pleases, and ruin you with impunity. For how are you to tie his hands? Have you any sufficient decided means of preventing him from sucking your blood by speculations, commissions, and fees? Thus thousands of your people will be most shamefully robbed.... When these harpies are aided by excise men, who may search at any time you houses and most secret recesses, while the people bear it?" Patrick Henry 1788
