Taxation Controversy By: Joshua Suh
Storyboard Text
- Quartering act
- Writs of assistance
- Sorry, rules are rules.
- I never gave you permission to do this in my property!!
- Sugar act
- I never even smuggled or do anything illegal
- Quartering act is when you have to let British troops in your house no matter what they do if they come to your house for food or have nowhere else to go you must let them stay there until they have found another place it could even be for a long time.
- Stamp act
- Why are we being taxed without consent
- I know right we should've had no taxation without representation
- Is when law enforcement or investigators searched your private property if they suspected if you had foreign objects or illegally smuggled items. They searched it without permission and they are not responsible if they break something.
- Declaratory
- This is unfair we should be taxed fairly
- I know right I really hate having another country controlling us.
- They made strict regulations about smuggling or trading. This decreased the economy's income and increased the cost of many resources. It taxed items unfairly and you might go broke if you don't have enough money.
- Townshend
- I can't believe im being taxed for just the smallest amount of objects wee could just make our own.
- Stamp acts meant no trial by jury and they were taxed without consent making colonist furious they didn't have the representative which made it worse.
- The declaratory act was when you again have to be taxed similarly to the stamp act but sometimes it may be unfair and harmful. They felt like they should be independent and not have another country have control over them.
- In Townshend, they get taxed over the smallest things like tables, glass, or even clothes, etc. Most of them are imported from Britain but you need to to pay taxes but many wanted to make for themeselves there.
