US Founding Father Samuel Adams had perfect words for your kind:
=E2=80=9CIf ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of =

PS. I have here a skid of letters written by an ancestor, Captain John =
Macartney, Royal Navy and Captain of HMS PRINCESS AMELIA to the Mayor of =
Norfolk, Virginia in 1776. The correspondence deals with the refusal by =
the Mayor to re-victual the seven ships under Captain Mac=E2=80=99s =
command that were moored in Norfolk harbour. Payment would be in gold =
but the mayor continued to refuse. At that point, the Captain made it =
clear he would order his squadron to bring their massed guns to bear on =
the township and open fire. Fortunately for everyone, the mayor changed =
his mind and massacre was averted. I apologise for any distress or hard =
feeling that may still exist in Norfolk and anywhere else :)
