∙ 12y agoThe Sugar Act placed a tax on a product coming into the colonies. It was a custom duty, a form of tax used to regulate trade. The colonists always acknowledged Parliament's right to enact custom duties, external taxes. The Stamp Act created a direct tax, an internal tax. It was not intended to regulate trade, but to raise money. It was a direct tax placed on a product and the consumer knew that he/she was paying that tax. The colonists claimed Parliament did not have the right to enact direct taxes because the colonists were not represented in Parliament.

∙ 12y agoThe Stamp Act resulted in the introduction of colonial boycotts of British imported goods which led to the eventual repealing of the tax by British Parliament. The famous slogan 'No Taxation without Representation' stemmed from the introduction of this tax, which many Americans saw to be an invasion of their civil rights as citizens of England. The fact that the tax was repealed showed the American people that it was possible for them to oppose British rule peacefully, and get results. Although this idea of peaceful opposition was largely dropped after the Boston Massacre when the British set the grounds for violent conflict in the colonies.
The colonists felt Parliament had no right to tax them because they were not able to vote for members of Parliament. This sentiment was expressed with the popular phrase, 'no taxation without representation.'
The Proclamation of 1763 greatly angered the colonists. They had fought with the British to defeat the French and gained the lands beyond the Appalachians hoping to settle there. The proclamation banned colonial settlement in the area.
Because it is like a mother and daughter relationship. The British had control over the colonists for a long time. The British did kinda baby them for a while , then British turned. And the colonists was like what is going on; and the British wanted to control the colonists and the colonists had enough so the wanted to rebel. So to answer the question , because the British felt like they were in control because they kinda took the colonists under there wing.
They didn't feel the need. They were loyal to the king and the population in the colonies was small.
