They felt they can be taxed since they were still British citizens and they shouldn't get all worked up about it. They were paying sort of like a sales tax.
Colonist's did not like Jay's Treaty because it sounded like a direct surrender to Britain because Hamilton hand told his British friends that we would be bluffing a lot, so John Jay had no hold on the British. It hurt America more than Britain because America had to continue paying the merchants for the Revolutionary war. most Americans at the time also didnt like Jay's Treaty because John Jay failed to open up the profitable British West Indies trade to Americans.
They were tired of being controlled by the british king as well as paying taxes
American colonists objected to paying taxes imposed by Parliament primarily because they believed it violated their rights as English subjects. They argued that since they had no representation in Parliament, it was unjust for them to be taxed without their consent, encapsulated in the slogan "no taxation without representation." The taxes were seen as a means for Britain to exert control and maintain its authority over the colonies, which fueled resentment and a desire for independence. This opposition contributed to escalating tensions that ultimately led to the American Revolution.
