The colonies actually paid a great deal less in taxes that did the people in England. This caused problems back home where the people there complained about paying taxes to supply soldiers and administration in the Colonies, not only in America but everywhere Great Britain had Colonies. For these reasons, certain taxes were levied on items such as public papers, tea and other imported items, and colonists were made to house soldiers. This infuriated some Colonists, and as time passed others were stirred up as well against England's administration, even though most Colonists still considered themselves British.
