His Majesty has declared that in order to raise revenue for the empire, the following acts are necessary: Colonists must pay taxes on glass, tea, paper and paint purchased from Great Britain. More spies, coast guard vessels, and officers will be employed to prevent smuggling. Writs of assistance will be issued allowing these officials to search anyone at anytime without reason. These rebellious colonists were found in violation of this act (possessing paper purchased from Great Britain, of all things!). Tsk.Tsk. When will these foolish Patriots ever learn that His Majesty always knows what's best for them.
