Why did the colonists first accept and then later reject indirect taxes such as duties on trade

History

Pepsi [2]3 years ago
6 0
Initially, the colonists accepted these taxes because they were lightly enforced by the government. These taxes were also light themselves, and were not a harsh payment to make for imports. When the British government did enforce these light duties and eventually added more direct taxes, the colonists feared that by accepting these, they would lose their property and political rights to the British. In the end, the colonists opposed all taxes imposed on them by the government.

Why was there tension between French and colonist
Marysya12 [62]
At the end of the French and Indian War the British government signed treaties with the Indians in the Ohio territory to restrict the American colonists from moving into there land. The American colonists ignored this British treaty, and started settling in the Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee areas. The British government, unlike the American government in the following century (which very seldom honored the treaties they signed with the Western tribes), tried to honor their treaties with he Indians and keep the Americans out. This brought the Americans and British into confrontation and was one of the main factors that led to the Revolution.
