Why was the tax too high for the colonists on the stamp act?

The question above represents a common misunderstanding regarding the reason for the colonies resistance to taxation from Great Britain. Most Americans today believe that it was an issue of how high the tax was and the burden that it would have placed upon the people. This is incorrect. The colonies resistance to taxation is directly connected to the issue of internal vs. external taxation. Internal taxation is taxes placed upon the people by representatives of the people. External taxation is taxes imposed upon a people that has no representation in the body that makes the decision. James Otis is claimed to have stated that, "Taxation without representation is tyranny". The colonists believed that laws imposed on a people that have no voice is a form of tyranny. The issue wasn't with a percentage, the issue was with liberty.
