Britain's policy of salutary neglect allowed the American colonies considerable autonomy and self-governance, as the British government focused more on its own issues rather than enforcing strict regulations. This leniency fostered a sense of independence among the colonists, leading them to develop their own political and economic systems. As the colonies grew accustomed to this freedom, it ultimately contributed to their desire for independence when Britain attempted to reassert control in the years leading up to the American Revolution.
The British passed a lot of laws during the French and Indian War but colonists generally ignored them because the soldiers were to busy with war to enforce them. When the war ended there were a ton of soldiers with nothing better to do than enforce the law. Britain passes a ton of new to pay for the war.
The Reversal of Salutary Neglect refers to a shift in British colonial policy in the mid-18th century, where the British government began to enforce stricter regulations and taxes on the American colonies after a long period of relatively lax oversight. This change was largely driven by the need to recoup debts from the Seven Years' War and to maintain colonial control. The increased enforcement of trade laws and taxation led to growing resentment among colonists, ultimately contributing to the American Revolution.
