What do abolitionists and the tea party movement have in common?

Popularity? 

Were they considered ideologues among their contemporaries?

Did they eventually make a difference?

Did abolitionists believe that men (and women) should live in slavery?  That all their labor should benefit a master?  Nothing for themselves?

Should government take everything via taxation and regulation from working people?  Do the masses labor their own enrichment?  Or, do they seem to labor for a greedy government complex?  Does party really matter?

I believe that taxation is theft.  Borrowing today, with no foreseeable repayment play, amounts to massive tax increases/theft on future generations...

Who's going to pay back all that money?  Is it ever right for any human being to sell another into slavery?  Debt bondage?  Didn't the US have this argument decades ago?

Taxation is theft.  When you tax or regulate everything a person earns, is that slavery?  Maybe government lets them keep a little...are they any less enslaved?

Long before the US became a nation, indentured servants could work on the side and pay or their indenture early.  Perhaps purchase the contract of a mate.  They had a way out of bondage.

Where is the working man's way out of bondage under Obama?  Maybe they could work a little harder and keep more?  Or, by working harder, or perhaps saving, they become 'wealthy' on paper and thus Obama is 'justified' to take more?  Take everything they labor to produce?

Abolitionists and the TEA Party Movement have a lot in common.  Stop slavery.  Let people keep the fruit of their own labor for themselves. 

Both movements were considered ideologues by their contemporaries. 

What's wrong with doing the right thing for everyone?  Stop the big government slavers!!!

It doesn't do any good to hate anyone,
