Shortages of goods in the American colonies during the Revolutionary War were primarily caused by British blockades that restricted trade and disrupted supply lines. Additionally, inflation and hoarding among colonists further exacerbated the scarcity of essential items. The conflict also diverted resources and labor away from agriculture and production, leading to decreased availability of goods. These factors combined to create significant challenges in maintaining supplies for both everyday life and military needs.
