Taxation without representation was one of out battle cry’s back in the 70’s, the 1770’s.
US Constitution, Article 1, Section 7
All bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.
So the US just had an election for all 435 US representatives, 1/3 of Senate and the President.
How is there a lack of representation? Everyone in the world had access to the news of the bailouts before the election. The representatives have been elected, just because your beliefs aren’t supported doesn’t mean you aren’t represented. It just means that the rest of the voters didn’t see it your way.
