Talk:Virtual representation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Neutrality of article is disputed?

In countries with democracies we would think of "virtual representation" as a charade and an excuse to give no representation; but this is a good start for an article. I suppose that this is not NPOV because it uses phrases like "the theory went" and "of course" which are weasel words. Oh, and if anyone wants to add material, cite references, or edit the point of view, this is always welcome. Midtempo-abg 15:31, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

The NPOV was originally added in response to the following:

The problem with this thesis is that there was no proper representation of the American Colonies by their British Leaders. As the Sons of Liberty said, they had taxation, but no representation. British leaders thousands of miles away knew very little of the wants and desires of the American colonists.

Since this is no longer in the current revision of the page, I think it is safe to remove the NPOV. 208.59.132.248 (talk) 05:05, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
