Enlightenment thinkers viewed taxation without representation as fundamentally unjust because it violated the social contract between the government and its citizens. They believed that legitimate government authority derived from the consent of the governed, and imposing taxes without their consent undermined individual rights and freedoms. This principle was central to their advocacy for democratic governance and the protection of personal liberties, leading to widespread discontent with oppressive regimes that ignored the voices of the people. Thus, taxation without representation was seen as an infringement on both political and economic liberty.
