The colonists' cry over "no taxation without representation" was made for the sake of achieving a more equitable relationship with their English home-country. In the view of the American residents of the North American colonies, it was unjust that England should tax them without allowing them any direct say (via political representation) in the passing and enforcing of governing laws. Hence, without representation, they protested, they would allow no taxation.
