Why did some American colonists engage in smuggling and piracy?

History
1 answer:
Illusion [34]3 years ago
5 0
The main reason why some Americans colonists turned to smuggling (more common) and piracy (less common) was economic. Simply put, it was a good way to make money. In addition, many people had so little respect for the laws they were breaking that they did not feel that it was morally wrong to do so.
