 Best Answer

The tax imposed by the crown was actually lower than than taxes paid in England. The problem was we were not consulted or given a voice on the issue. The King tried to pass it off so that later on other taxes imposed on the colonies could be done without consent because we didn't argue about having a tax lowered. 

Pure and simple it was a way to impose control without consent.

What actions by the British led to American resentment?
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The correct answer is A) American Indian aid

and

D) Impressment

Explanation:

Even after the Independence of the American colonies, their relationship with Great Britain was always shaky. Things came to a new low when the British decided to aid native Indian tribes who wanted more sovereignty from Washington DC.

Also, impressment was when British naval ships would travel across the Eastern US shores and force young men into service. Not only was it illegal, it was making it very difficult for the United States to build a proper Navy.

Both these were seen as aggressive and increased American resentment of the British.
