Dear Loyal Colonists,
Upon your desks, you will find a cup of money (skittles). As you know, Britain is in a great deal of debt due to that silly little French and Indian War. It is YOUR responsibility to provide for your country and help us to repay the debt. I have sent 2 members of Parliament across the Atlantic to supervise and help collect the taxes. I knew you wouldn't mind!
If anyone is caught stealing, refusing to pay or using (eating) his/her money for any purpose other than paying taxes, he/she will be placed in the stocks in the center of town.
Sincerely,
King George III

They are not too happy about paying taxes on "unfair" things and services.
