British politicians questioning Benjamin Franklin sought to justify the Stamp Act by arguing that it was a necessary means for raising revenue to cover the costs of defending the American colonies during the French and Indian War. They contended that as subjects of the British Crown, the colonists should contribute to the expenses incurred by the empire. Additionally, they emphasized the principle of "virtual representation," claiming that the colonists were represented in Parliament even if they did not have direct representatives, thus legitimizing the imposition of taxes without colonial consent.

Benjamin Franklin gives several reasons to justify his inability to break some of his habits in his autobiography. He mentions the difficulty of changing deeply ingrained behaviors that have become second nature to him over time. Franklin also acknowledges the influence of his own self-indulgence and lack of self-discipline in hindering his efforts to break these habits. Additionally, he highlights the challenge of overcoming the pleasure or satisfaction derived from these habits, making it harder for him to resist the temptation to continue them.
