The actual cost to provide the colonists with protection, infrastructure, and stability was much larger than what they were actually being taxed, and even Englishmen were paying more. They also gathered a huge debt from the French and Indian war and Pontiac's Rebellion (which caused the Proclamation of 1763, because the cost of protection from Indians was too great for British Mercantilistic ideals).

Where in the world did you ever get the impression that Benjamin Franklin was willing to "fight" for freedom from England? Franklin was an Anglophile who clearly loved England, France, and Continental ways. As far as revolution goes, it is clear that Dr. Franklin preferred American independence, but it is equally clear that he remained a "fence sitter" until the outcome of the dispute took a "colonial" turn.
The 13 colonies became states in 1776. Why: that is when the Revolutionary War took place. Also, on Novermber 30 Britain made a treaty to turn the thirteen colonies to turn the colonies into the United States.

Why did Spain turn to Africa to provide labor for its Americas Colonies?
During the American Revolutionary War, a major reason for Britain's shift-of-focus to the southern colonies in the latter half of the war was the lack of success of their northern strategy. Having been soundly defeated at Saratoga in late 1777, the British decided to turn to the seemingly more Loyalistic southern colonies as a potential weakness in the American front.

Images like "Group of Cannibal Indians" perpetuated stereotypes that dehumanized indigenous peoples, which in turn influenced the dehumanization of Africans and the justification of their enslavement in the British North American colonies. This representation of non-European peoples as savage and less civilized helped to reinforce the idea of racial superiority and the exploitation of different groups for economic gain.

The Boston Massacre in 1770, where five colonists were killed by British soldiers, was used as propaganda to turn more colonists against the British. This event was portrayed as a brutal attack on innocent civilians, fueling anti-British sentiments and contributing to the growing tensions that led to the American Revolution.
The June 1775 Battle of Bunker Hill brought the American Colonies at least one step closer to independence in several ways. For one thing, it instilled confidence in the colonists that their forces could stand up to the legendarily stalwart British soldiers. For another thing, it hardened British resolve to refuse any concessions to the tentative rebellion; in turn, this steeled the Colonies to their cause, and the Revolutionary War soon escalated into full-fledged hostilities that resulted (after years of conflict) in a number of significant victories.
