Answer:

During his early years, Otis was a Loyalist, however, some of his pamphletes later inspired the Patriots as it showed strong ideas regarding liberty, property and autonomy.

According to Otis, by paying taxes, it should provide a full citizenship state, which wasn´t effective for the colonists linving in North America as they didn´t have parliament representation. Therefore, as per Otis, paying taxes but not having political representation, was a vile tyranny.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

In 1781 the coin shilling was worth 75 times more than a paper shilling, because of that, all debts should be paid with coin and not paper. Farmers were especially moved by that and many of them had to sell their farms to get money and pay debts. With that, Daniel Shay - a former captain in the continental army - led an army of farmers in a revolt that was called Shay’s Rebellion. They demanded tax relief and a moratorium on debt collection. In the end, the rebellion was put down but it pushed the federal government to provide economic relief.
