Answer:

1. Boycott = Townsend Act

2. Smuggling = Sugar and Molasses Act

3. Second Continental Congress = Stamp Act

4. Boston Tea Party = Intolerable Act

Explanation:

  • The Townshend Laws was one of a series of taxes that divided Britain and its colonies in America. Unlike the Stamp Act of 1765, the laws were not a direct tax, but a tax on imports. The Stamp Act had been repealed by the opposition in the colonies that include the boycott of British products.
  • The Molasses Act of March 1733 was a law passed by the Parliament of the Kingdom of Great Britain imposing a tax of sixpence for every gallon of molasses of the non-British colonies. Parliament passed the law in large part at the insistence of the owners of large plantations in the British West Indies.1 2 The law was not passed for the purpose of increasing tax revenues, but rather to regulate trade by doing cheaper British products compared to those of the French Antilles. It is considered that this law is circumscribed in the set of Acts of Commerce and Navigation, promulgated from 1651 with the purpose of restricting the use of foreign ships in the commerce of England ( later Great Britain) and its colonies. The taxes approved by these laws are considered as one of the indirect economic causes of the War of Independence of the United States. The origin of this law is found in the mercantilist economic doctrine, according to which the exports of a country had to exceed its imports.
  • The Stamp Act, was a law of the British Parliament that supposed a direct and specific tax for the thirteen colonies of British America that required that most of the printed materials in the colonies be published on stamped paper and produced in London, stamped with a tax stamp in relief.
  • The Intolerable Acts was the name given to laws issued in 1774 by the British Parliament1 due to continued discontent in the Thirteen American Colonies, particularly in Boston after turbulent incidents such as the Tea Party in Boston.

Flura [38]

Answer:

One of the major differences is the degree of variety and choice a person has in today's education system as compared to the education system of the past. Even in the formative years, there's a lot more choice. There are magnet schools and charter schools for example. Private schools are more widely available than they were in the past.
