What is taxation without representation? Why did the colonists consider this practice a problem?

History

zhuklara [117]3 years ago
6 0
Taxation without representation simply means that people are being taxed without being allowed to have an elected official present in the body that makes the tax laws (in this case that body would be Parliament)--meaning that the people being taxed have no say in what types of taxes are fair or not. The colonists viewed this as tyrannical and morally wrong.

What was the condition of women before the mid eighteenth century?
aliina [53]
Women could not vote or hold office in any state, they had no access to higher education, and they were excluded from professional occupations. American law accepted the principle that a wife had no legal identity apart from her husband. She could not be sued, nor could she bring a legal suit; she could not make a contract, nor could she own property. She was not permitted to control her own wages or gain custody of her children in case of separation or divorce. Although there were many improvements in the status of women during the first half of the century, women still lacked political and economic status when compared with men.<span>Additionally, women lost economic status as production shifted away from the household to the factory and workshop. During the late 18th century, the need for a cash income led women and older children to engage in a variety of household industries, such as weaving and spinning.</span>
