2 jan 1767 ano - The Townshend Act

Descrição:

Charles Townshend was asked in Parliment if he would make the colonists pay for the army, and he yelled while stamping his foot, ”I will! I will!” And he succeeded. He came up with taxing popular goods such as glass, paint, paper, and tea. The colonists were completely unaware that this tax existed for a short while, but when they figured it out, they got very upset and decided to boycott British goods.
