You could stop ad-hominen and offer an alternative to my factual statement. The US has the least government oversight in the lives of the public, private and business of all Western democracies.

It is also markedly less socialist, not completely devoid of it.

no, the Brits did not possess superior firearms. They were all armed with muskets and fought in a three lined formation. The militia possessed Rifles, which were truly capable of shooting farther and more accurately.

Not everybody in the militia has rifled muskets and for every rifled musket, you would have a matchlock or equivalent musket.

And while the redcoats had smoothbore muskets they had two things the militia didn't:
1) Common equipment
2) Discipline.
>>
>>31072058
>WHY DID LIFE NOT GET BETTER?
The main reason people push for socialism is they think it will give more people a better life.

>THAT BOOK WE NEVER READ SAID THINGS WOULD BE BETTER NOW?
None of them have read Das Kapital or any of the Communist/Socialist literature, except those that have come from free societies.

>B-BUT I DON'T WANT THAT JOB...
One of the biggest, albeit less reported, complaints from Communist societies is the imposition of a job if they are unemployed or untrained in practical applications. There's no need for a generation of English Lit majors and so they are given employment with no choice otherwise.

Yes, I was making fun of those who support Socialism.

On an individual basis people in the US aren't better off than people in many other western nations. Based on factors like the ease of upward mobility through the economic classes, and the like. As a whole the US is the most successful, that's true, but in the way that actually matters most to the American people, it isn't.

The simple fact that our economic system is a hybrid is what makes it work better than either pure communism and pure capitalism, btw. Though some people seem to love the idea of living in an an-cap corporate oligarchy as much as others love a conformist socialist state.

read a article or two
guerilla tactics were FAR from common in the colonial war and Washington was actually against using it.

He wanted the USA to be seen as a real country, and to be a real country you need a real army. At the time, having a real army meant having a army that fought using conventional tactics.

He definitely did not want everyone to see american army as nothing but a bunch of ragtag guys cowardly attacking the british force from a forrest.

There are bunch of articles about this

The two sides during the rev war were generally close. Averaging around 50 yards or so (smoothbore muskets firing round ball is not the most accurate thing ever made).
While yes the American forces had some rifled muskets, there was far from enough to make a difference in anything but a skirmish. So most battles where fought close enough that one side could charge the other before there was a chance to reload.
>>
>>31072384
Ok. Maybe not a ton of matchlocks (but there where some as a poor family might have to keep an old gun going) but rifled muskets where expensive so they where no where near as a smoothbore musket.

Then once the French started to arm the rebels they used what they had on hand, more smoothbore muskets.

I'm as red-blooded American as the next guy and love hearing about how the American militia would pick off British groups from 200yrds away but I also know those stories are only from the early revolution, when the army consisted of only militia and the British did not take the rebels seriously.

Regardless of the country, a pride in the history and traditions of your country is a nice thing to have so long as you don't go stomping on others because of it. National sovereignty and a desire to be the master of your own destiny are noble pursuits.
