22 март 1765 г. - The Stamp Act
Описание:
The Stamp Act taxed all papers, pamphlets, newspapers, and cards. It was the first direct attempt to profit from taxation on the colonies. To prove you paid the tax, the product you bought was stamped. Colonists believed it was unfair to not have a say on their taxes, especially ones so inconvenient and expensive. They resisted by boycotting British goods, which hurt Britain's economy. In late 1766, the act was repealed, but enacted the Declaratory Act, which declared Parliament's right to tax.
