The war was started because of a blunder by an American militia commander, George Washington. It was fought entirely in America so a majority of the money would go toward paying colonial soldiers. And it was fought for protection for colonists west of the Applachain range.

Did loyalty of the colonists to Britain change after the french and Indian war?

Why did Great Britain raise taxes on American colonists?

To help pay the expenses of the French and Indian War ~ apexKing George III borrowed money from other countries to pay for the Seven Years' War (also known as the French and Indian War in North America) and had to pay them back.In order to cover some of the £60m (and still rising) spent on the Seven Years' War -- which the British said had been fought partly to protect the colonists -- Prime Minister George Grenville asked Parliament to tax the colonists.At the time, taxation was in excess of a tenth of British national income against a few per cent in the colonies, and politicians in London hoped to spread the burden. It was old-fashioned British penny-pinching rather than a monstrous plot to subvert colonial self-government, but that wasn't how American opponents saw it.

Why did king and parliament feel that the Americans should bear the French and Indian War by the colonists?

The French and Indian War left the King and Parliament with tremendous debt. They wanted the Americans to help pay that debt. That is understandable. The real problem came with the new regulations, the types of new taxes, the outright theft of property, and the corrupt bureaucracy the King established to collect the taxes. Probably, if the King and Parliament had simply had the colonies increase existing taxes to cover the expenses of the war, there would not have been a problem.
