Answer:    They believed there should be no taxation without representation

Explanation:  The Stamp Act was one of the reasons for the colonists protest, which, along with other justifiable reasons, consequently led to the American Revolution. The Stamp Act was introduced in 1765 by the British Parliament, directly imposing a tax on the colonies, because it ordered that all printed materials in the colonies must be printed on paper produced in London. Such paper produced in London had an embossed revenue stamp and had to be used for all printed matter, starting from official legal documents to newspapers. In addition, the paper had to be paid for in British currency, not colonial money. The Stamp Act was nothing more than imposing new taxes, because Britain wanted to reduce its debt after the French-Indian War.

As the colonists did not have their representatives in the British Parliament who made all decisions about the colonies and their fates without the colonists, they reasonably felt that the tax should not be without the colonists' representatives in the British Parliament.

Was Franklin Roosevelt successful at combatting the Great Depression? How did the New Deal affect future generations of American
Dmitry [639]
FDR's New Deal was successful at combating the Great Depression. After implementing his New Deal policies, the unemployment rate dropped by roughly 10% in the first few years. Along with this, the programs helped to build America's infrastructure, parks, and resulted in the creation of several long term agencies that exist today (like the SEC and FDIC).

The New Deal affected future generations by creating agencies that still exist today. A perfect example is the Social Security Administration. This gives financial assistance to America's elderly population. This system is one that most employees currently pay into. This has been seen as a successful program, as it helps to pay for several different things (like medical costs) that senior citizens would otherwise struggle to pay for.
