Taxes
The colonists initial goal against the British was for lower taxation. Instead of lowering taxes the British increase taxes. The increased taxes led to the Revolutionary war.
After 1763, the British imposed unfair taxes on the colonists. They colonists began to feel that they were being exploited by Britain.
American colonists objected to British taxes because the colonists had no vote on the taxes and no representation in the British parliament. The colonists' catchphrase for protests was "taxation without representation", because they were being taxed without representation in the parliament and that's why they were mad.
The taxes were to help pay for the French and Indian war. They reasoned that they were protecting the colonists and the colonists were English subjects so they should help pay for the war.
The colonists let the Parliament know that they were against british taxes by throwing british goods into the water. This was called the british tea act.
Under pressure from American colonists and British merchants, the British did lower taxes levied on other tea importers, the tax-free status of the British East.
