Описание:

British rationale: Used to pay for military force in colonies. Needed a way to pay for debt from 7 years war, colonists should pay for their protection.

Colonial reaction: Petitions, boycott, violence

Colonial rationale: Stamp meetings, “Taxation without Representation,” rough homespun clothes and various other acts sparked due to taxes on a variety of paper goods. Costed extra expense from colonists and fear of historic liberty being stripped away.
