The blame can go waaayyy back. The 19th in 1919, Abraham jew-lover lincoln in the 1860's. I sometimes wonder if we'd not be better off if we never would have overthrown monarchy. Yet even God warned Israel that Kings would send their sons off to war and tax them (I think the latter, I know he warned on the former). Holy, God fearing Judges were his ideal government, if you want to call it that.
The monarchy isn't in charge in the UK. Not even close. When I say "overthrew monarchy" I don't just mean the Revolutionary War. I mean Cromwell and his ilk as well.
