	Paradox Interactive Forums - The peasant/burgher tax dance, a known tactic?
		Start by setting taxes to maximum, as peasant or burgher loyalty starts to fall, give them a shot of power.
		Eventually you will end up with 50/50 power between the burghers and peasants and very low cleric and noble loyalty.
		Squeezing the peasants and burghers out of all their money, but keeping them satisfied by giving them "power" in their city or villages seems plausible to me.
