His goal was to have the colonists pay for the war that they had just had with the Indians. The war I am referring to is the French and Indian War (1756-1763). It was rather costly, and the King decided that the colonists should pay. He created several laws & taxes, & one of them was the Stamp Act. He believed this was a good way to get out of debt, but the colonists thought it unfair, as they didn't have anyone representing them in Parliament, where they approve taxes/laws.
He wanted the colonies to pay for the soldiers that had protected the colonies from the French attacks.

This is the original answer with several misspellings:the British didn't really care whether or not the colonies agree to paying taxes or not. they just want money. the colonists feel that theBritish actions violated their rights to be secure. James Otis, a Boston lawyer said, "No parts of [England's colonies] can be taxed without consent... every part has a right to be represented."I'm only 12 when i read that over it sounded really smart at the end about the colonies :)____________________________________________________________________ This is my answer, in which I am simply rephrasing with correct spelling and punctuation:The British did not care whether or not the colonists minded their taxes. All they wanted was more money. The colonists felt as though the actions of the British violated their rights to be secure.I did not delete the original part because it was, in fact, a very good answer and it was correct. I just typed my version of it down here so that you would have a greater variety of answers to this question, but thank you to the person who first answered it!!! :)Hope i was of good assistance!! :)
