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

Social Studies
1 answer:
Sergeu [11.5K]2 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.

List and explain four new methods or inventions in agriculture in this era.
ipn [44]

Answer:

1. Cotton Gin: In colonial times, cotton cloth was more expensive than linen or wool because of the extreme difficulty of separating seed from the clinging fibers. One man could pick the seeds from only about 1 pound of cotton fiber per day.

2. Reaper/Binder: Small grains had been harvested by hand for centuries, cut with sickles or scythes, hand-raked and tied into sheaves. Grain harvesting machines first appeared in Great Britain in about 1800, and in the U.S. a decade or two later, but most failed. Obed Hussey and Cyrus McCormick developed successful reapers during the 1830s. 

3. Thresher: When grain was being cut by hand, the method for separating the kernels from the straw was equally slow and labor intensive. Grain was hauled to a barn where it was spread on a threshing floor and either beaten with hand flails or trampled by animals. That knocked the kernels free of the straw, which was then raked away. The remaining mixture was winnowed by tossing it into the air where the wind was relied upon to blow the chaff and lighter debris away from the heavier grain, which fell back onto the threshing floor.

4. Combined Harvester-Thresher: By the 1920s the steam traction engine was on it's way out, but it paved the way for the gasoline tractors that followed.

How do households dissave? where do they get the money to finance their extra consumption? can everyone dissave at the same time
Talja [164]
Households dissave when en their consumption exceeds their incomes. The extra money comes from two sources: credit and past incomes, also known as savings. When a house dissaves it can either borrow money from financial institutions or spend money that was previously saved. Everyone cannot dissave at the same time because banks would not have enough money to fund everybody's excessive consumption.
