During the Stamp act, the colonists had to pay for a special paper and during the Sugar act they had to pay for the sugar. But during the Townshend act, the colonists had to pay for tea, paint, silk, glass, ink, and lead. Eventually this act was repealed, all but the tea tax which led to the Boston Tea Party.
