England imposed the Townshend Acts to raise revenue to govern the colonies. Taxes were placed on such items as glass, paper, and tea.
The colonists were outraged about British taxes primarily because they felt these taxes were imposed without their consent, violating the principle of "no taxation without representation." They believed that only their own colonial assemblies had the right to levy taxes, as they were not represented in the British Parliament. This sense of injustice, combined with economic burdens from acts like the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts, fueled their desire for independence and resistance against British rule.
Due to the great distance between the colonies and Britain it was hard for Britain to enforce control over the colonists. The colonists got used to essentially governing themselves, so when British rule was more strictly imposed after the 7 Years War (Taxes imposed on the colonists were to try and alleviate the war debt, but led to "No taxation without representation!") the colonists rebelled.
The colonists opposed these acts because the colonists considered them to be unfair taxing (taxation without representation). Britain placed these taxes without their consent so they rebelled.

A slogan for the Intolerable Acts could be "No Taxation Without Representation!" This phrase encapsulates the colonists' outrage at being taxed by the British Parliament without having any say in the laws that affected them. The Intolerable Acts were a series of punitive measures imposed by the British government in response to the Boston Tea Party, further fueling the colonists' resentment and ultimately leading to the American Revolutionary War.

The British blamed the colonists for starting the war so they began to tax the colonists, which angered them. The country and the colonies began to fight with each other as many acts were placed upon the colonists. The results of the French and Indian war is what caused the Revolution.
