What does Taxation without Representation mean? Why was it important to the colonists?

Social Studies
1 answer:
Sergeu [11.5K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: a phrase, generally attributed to James Otis about 1761, that reflected the resentment of American colonists at being taxed by a British Parliament to which they elected no representatives and became an anti-British slogan before the American Revolution; in full, “Taxation without representation is tyranny.”

Taxation without representation was possibly the first slogan adopted by American colonists chafing under British rule. 1 They objected to the imposition of taxes on colonists by a government that gave them no role in its policies.

LenKa [72]

Answer: c. Tenancy in common

Explanation: When two or more parties concurrently or simultaneously posses distinct and undivided ownership of a property such that each distinct party has the right to bargain or transact his or her own interest in the property without needing to inform or seek consent of the other parties. Tenancy in common does not subject the owners to having equal share of the property, any of the parties may wish to transfer or attach a creditor to his or her interest. Also, in tenancy in common, upon the death of any party or interest holder, the heir of the tenant becomes the owner of the tenant's interest.
