🫖🇬🇧What The American Patriots Feared Most As Americans, we are told a familiar story in school about our country’s founding, albeit one that never ceases to capture our imaginations long after we have learned it. Sick and tired of the British Empire’s taxes, and angry that the British Parliament, across the ocean in London, could levy them without proper representation of the colonies — “no taxation without representation” — the scrappy Americans rose against the “tyrannical” King George, fought a war for independence, and established the greatest Constitutional Republic the world had ever seen. That is the crux of it. That is what we remember most. But obviously there is so much more to this story than what we learn throughout grammar school, high school, and perhaps even college. This piece hopes to shed some light on one such nugget of overlooked history. The American Patriots of the late 18th century weren’t simply rebelling against the King. In fact, King George III wasn’t even that powerful, compared to the monster that Britain had unleashed upon the globe nearly 200 years earlier. It was a beast that had no real parallel in the history of the world up until that point – and has had no such parallel since. It was an “empire within an empire,” and the Patriots were right to fear it as much as they feared the monarch. The Empire Within The Empire Founded in 1599, the British East India Company (EIC) was one of the first joint-stock ventures, built on the simple yet brilliant idea that allowed outside investors to buy shares in the company while not having to actually run the business. They later grew to become the largest corporation in the history of the world. So large, in fact, that by the early 1800s, one of its directors admitted that the EIC was an “empire within an empire.” Indeed, they were. The EIC had their own private army, a security force that grew to over 200,000 men by the 19th century, bigger than the British Empire’s army. Early on, the company infiltrated the British parliament, buying off MPs in an attempt to steer the Empire’s policy. Historian William Dalrymple wrote that the EIC “probably invented corporate lobbying” and also faced the “world’s first corporate lobbying scandal,” which prompted a parliamentary investigation, in the 1690s. The company was found guilty of bribery and insider trading, and its governor was imprisoned. Even King George III – though he looked down upon the EIC’s brutal tactics and some of its members’ nouveau-riche qualities, and believed that farmers, not merchants, were the backbone of his nation – admitted in a speech to parliament in 1772, “It is impossible that I can look with indifference upon the prosperity of the East Indian Company.” The EIC was never a benign corporation that merely traded silks and spices from East to West – it was rapacious. By 1765, as Dalrymple notes, they had transformed into an “aggressive colonial power” that governed much of the Mughal Empire of India, and even shares in the company “were a kind of global reserve currency.” They looted Mughal Bengal, the largest subdivision of the Mughal Empire, strip-mining its wealth and precious natural resources to export back to London. They also became the world’s most powerful narco traffickers, growing opium in India, selling it to the Chinese in exchange for tea, and then selling the Chinese tea back to India, Europe, and the American Colonies. They fought the Opium Wars against the Chinese Qing dynasty to preserve their monopoly on narcotics, and their drug empire would have made Pablo Escobar’s look like a summer lemonade stand. However, around the time that revolutionary sentiment began to bubble up in New England and the American Colonies in the early 1770s, the EIC was in dire financial straits, bogged down by immense debt. As King George practically admitted in his parliament speech in 1772, the EIC was too big to fail. The Empire relied heavily on the EIC’s exports and its unsavory governorship of India, and did not want to give up any of that territory to the French. Ultimately, the EIC would need a bailout to avoid bankruptcy and stave off great economic harm to the Crown. The World’s First Corporate Bailout According to historian Andrew Roberts, the EIC was a mess at this time and on the verge of bankruptcy. Their wars were costly; the company was struggling to pay its £400,000 annual levy (roughly £79.3 million to £94.7 million in today’s money) to the government and other import taxes; there were problems collecting revenue in Bengal; and a global tea glut was eating away at their profits. Further, the EIC was running the risk of not being able to pay their private soldiers, who were absolutely invaluable to their entire business and colonial operation in the Mughal Empire. Despite some reservations from King George, the British Treasury ended up giving the EIC a £1.4 million bailout (roughly £274 to £278 million in today’s money). However, in addition to this loan, the Crown had other ways of helping the company. The government opened up the American Colonial and North American tea market to the EIC, permitting the sale of vast tea surpluses and granting them a monopoly that would hopefully undercut the Dutch East Indian Company, who were smuggling a much cheaper product into the colonies. The British also presumed that market forces would ultimately drive down tea prices for consumers and that it would be a win-win for all. EIC’s finances would be buffered, the Dutch would suffer an economic blow, and the Americans would get cheaper tea. In May 1773, the British Commons passed the Tea Act. Duties on tea, re-exported and shipped to America, were abolished, and the EIC was now allowed to sell directly to the American colonies. Although duties were nixed for the EIC, Americans still had to pay their own tax on imports. But that wouldn’t matter much, the British government anticipated, because the tea would still be significantly cheaper than the alternative. They were wrong. Tea, Corruption, And Monopoly “Once again the government had not reckoned with the radicalism of the New England merchant-cum-smuggling community, or the unpopularity of what Americans saw as Britain’s licensed monopoly provider,” Roberts wrote in his biography of King George III, The Last King of America. Roberts noted that these merchants and smugglers, who were increasingly calling themselves the “Patriots,” worried that the British Parliament’s right to tax imports would be reinforced by the Tea Act; their shipping profits would decrease; the Crown’s revenue would increase, thereby diluting the power of the local colonial assemblies; and the British regiments that were thwarting the colonists from expanding their territories into the west would be boosted by further financing. The task to prevent the EIC tea from being sold fell to the Sons of Liberty, who, of course, dumped 342 chests, or 96 tons, of it into the Boston Harbor on December 16, 1773. What is less known about the story, however, is the sheer fear the Patriots and Sons of Liberty had specifically for the EIC and how its monopoly could lead to a horrible scenario not unlike that of India: subjugation by the world’s largest corporate entity – a corrupt government accountable only to corporate shareholders, not the citizens under its rule. Leading up to the Tea Party, one member of the Sons of Liberty, Alexander McDougall, captured the anti-monopoly spirit that was spreading like wildfire through the colonies in a pamphlet series titled The Alarm, published in October 1773. McDougall later served in the Continental Army during the war and was close friends with Alexander Hamilton and George Washington, who described him as a “pillar of the revolution.” A New York merchant who wrote under the pseudonym Hampden, McDougall decried the power of monopolies and the East India Company, and correctly pointed out that they had successfully corrupted the British Parliament. He wrote in the first of the series, “A monopoly beyond this is manifestly injurious to the Community, and subversive of the Rights of Individuals. The Friends of Liberty and equal Commerce have always considered any other Monopoly dangerous.” McDougall also criticized the EIC’s barbarism in India, comparing them to the “most brutal of savages” and accusing them of committing “acts of unheard of inhumanity.” He warned that their monopoly would harm trade and merchants like himself, but he also understood that, just as the EIC had turned India into a zone of colonial plunder, they could do the same to the Colonies and rule with an iron fist as they did in Bengal. --- Thank you for reading this far.

I strongly oppose the Trump administration’s disruptive decision to require many students, temporary visa holders, and other individuals seeking green cards to leave the United States and return to their home countries while their applications are processed. This policy creates unnecessary fear and uncertainty for families, workers, and employers who are following the law. The Administration disregards the fact that many individuals seeking permanent residency are here legally and waiting for their cases to move through an already backlogged immigration system. America has long benefited from attracting top researchers, doctors, engineers, entrepreneurs, and innovators through our legal immigration system and worker visa programs. Forcing these individuals to leave the United States during the green card process will deprive our country of their innovation, their tax contributions, and the many ways they strengthen our economy and communities. As the son of Indian immigrants, I know firsthand that our nation is strengthened by people who come here legally, work hard, and contribute to our communities. We should be reducing processing delays and modernizing our immigration system, not creating additional barriers for people who are following the rules. I support legal challenges to this policy and expect the courts to halt its implementation.
