Original Note:
The Boston tea party was an uprising against a TAX, not a tariff. Literally a “taxation without representation,” There was no counter party in a trade dispute, it was a tax on residents for consumption. https://www.history.com/articles/boston-tea-party https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/tariffs-vs-taxes-what-are-differences
