Why did Britain pursue a policy of salutary neglect towards her American colonies?

Britain pursued a policy of salutary neglect toward her American colonies because Britain wanted obedience from them and without restrictions, the colonies would flourish. Salutary neglect is an undocumented, though longstanding, British policy of avoiding strict enforcement of parliamentary laws, meant to keep the American colonies obedient to Great Britain. Britain also passed unjust laws and many different acts upon the colonists to keep their loyalty towards them. Salutary neglect was a main factor for many battles and wars and it was mainly so Britain wouldn't lose the colonists' loyalty and they would stay under their government.
