Taxes[edit]

I'm not seeing how "high taxes" is supported by secondary sources, and we should not be inserting our own analyses of the primary text into the article. I cannot ping the IP address who thinks "high taxes" should be in the lead, but I hope they'll see this. Vanamonde (Talk) 16:36, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
