The reason the rebels did so was because they where tired of paying taxs for tea, not only that, but other stuff too, so they decided to dress up as Indians and dump all the tea on the british's boat into the harbor.

∙ 11y agoThe tea tax, along with many other taxes imposed on the colonies by the king of England even though the colonies remained unrepresented in the either the House of Lords or the House commons. The primary reason for the taxes was to keep the British Military at peak proficiency and to pay off loans that were taken out to prosecute further imperial endeavors and war.
The tea was thrown overboard as a protest of taxation of imported goods without representation.
