They resented having to pay taxes without the ability to participate in government. Hence the saying "No taxation without representation". ---- American colonists felt that the taxes that they had to pay were unfair because of a few reasons. Every little thing was being taxed, including stamps, tea, food, and trade. What was most frustrating was that there was nothing they could do about it. And it was clear that they did not want to pay without having some say in what is going on with these taxes, thus the term was said, "No taxation without representation."
