What was the rallying cry of the colonist with respect to taxes without consent?

It says that all thirten colonies were united under the common idea that they have absolved all allegiance to the British crown and were independent and free to do as any other free and independent soveriegn nation has the ability to do. Answer by Msena 21 No taxation without representation means that since the colonists were not represented in British Parlaiment, and therefor had no power at all they should not have to pay tax to Britain. In other words, they felt they owed Britain nothing for they had no privaleges. I do not know what the exact phrase is in the declaration though. Answer by anonymous yet reliable resource (p.s. Msena 21 is very wrong, she is talking about the declaration of independence, not the meaning of no taxation without representation or what the actual phrase is)


How did the US promote the growth of American Industry?

By imposing a tariff (a tax) on imported goods. This was to make imported items more expensive than domestically produced ones. A high tariff was popular in the north, as protecting American jobs and making northern manufacturers wealthy. It was bitterly resented in the south. The south traded a lot with Europe, particularly France and England. Cotton was shipped directly from plantation docks to brokers in Europe, who sold the cotton on behalf of the planters, and then used the money to fill orders for goods, then shipped the goods back to the south. A high tariff made these items more expensive. The quality of European goods was often superior to the American equivalent, and they were often cheaper, before the tariff was added. There were no good trade routes between the north and the south of the US. Before the Civil War most of the revenue the US government received came from southern payments of the tariff. Resentment over a new higher tariff provoked the Nullification Crisis during Andrew Jackson's first term.
