I agree we all do have representation.  However, The representation doesn't reflect what the majority always want, but rather what that particular Rep wants.  Like in my state of NC (Sen. Hagan, and Rep Miller.)  The majority of their constituency was against the omni bus, but they voted for it.  It was very vocal here in the disapproval of their vote.  Not to mention after the first day of heavy phone calls both phone systems were "in repair."  The local lib newspaper and news media didn't report on it, and basically buried it long enough for the anger to pass.

You are right about the Boston Tea Party, but this is more similar than you might think.
