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.

What was the king of England point of views on the stamp act?
His goal was to have the colonists pay for the war that they had just had with the Indians. The war I am referring to is the French and Indian War (1756-1763). It was rather costly, and the King decided that the colonists should pay. He created several laws & taxes, & one of them was the Stamp Act. He believed this was a good way to get out of debt, but the colonists thought it unfair, as they didn't have anyone representing them in Parliament, where they approve taxes/laws.
