What was a main idea behind the American Revolutionary War?

Social Studies

lord [1]3 years ago

Answer:

Multiple causes took place that eventually caused many colonists to go against Great Britain.

Explanation:

By 1774, the year leading up to the Revolutionary War, there were many causes that continued to pile up. Parliament had been passing laws placing taxes on the colonists in America. There had been the Sugar Act in 1764, the Stamp Act the following year, and a variety of other laws that were meant to get money from the colonists for Great Britain. The colonists didn't like these laws.

Great Britain was passing these laws because of the French and Indian War, which had ended in 1763. That war, which had been fought in North America, left Great Britain with a huge debt that had to be paid. Parliament said it had fought the long and costly war to protect its American subjects from the powerful French in Canada. Parliament said it was right to tax the American colonists to help pay the bills for the war.

Most colonists disagreed. Parliament was elected by people living in England, and the colonists felt that lawmakers living in England could not understand the colonists' needs. The colonists felt that since they did not take part in voting for members of Parliament in England they were not represented in Parliament. So Parliament did not have the right to take their money by imposing taxes. "No taxation without representation" became the American rallying cry.

If Jessica keeps on paying all the bills and does something special by spending money on her stuff, then Paul might get sad and feel uncomfortable and guilty.

Money is often the root cause of couples drifting away from each other. If only one partner spends all the money and the other is incapable of doing so, then they may feel offended at times, and this can cause some rift between them which can affect their relationship negatively. It is very important for the partners to share the bills or contribute proportionally to their income. It can reduce misunderstandings too and hence bring positivity between them. Equity theory focuses on determining whether the distribution of resources is fair to both relational partners in a rational manner. It also suggests that employee motivation at work is driven largely by their sense of fairness and proportion. It simply focuses on the idea that both inputs and outcomes of any exchange process should be proportional in nature.
