I didn't feel bad because I didn't have to pay. My friends lost money. They earned their money and then lost their money because of the stupid tax laws by England. They made their fist money. I am one of the lucky ones that didn't have to pay any more taxes. I feel really bad for my friends who had to pay taxes. My friend had earned 7 pence then he had to pay 2 pence on a tax. The laws were: Whoever wore a bracelet or wristband had to pay 2 pence,whoever wore glasses had to pay 1 pence,whoever was left handed had to pay 1 pence. My friend lost two pence because he wore a necklace. However I know some people lost all their money and I feel the worst for those people.

That sounds really unfair! King George had enough money. Today when I pay taxes, sometimes it still seems unfair, but now they go to things like schools, roads and services to help people. That makes me feel a little better about paying taxes.
