Response to the BBC : I agree with the article. It said that the colonists were upset with the Stamp Act and other taxes. At that time, colonies have to paid taxes to England , though the taxes rate is very low in the colonies. In England, the taxes rate is about 30% of the labor's salary ,but in colonies the tax rate is only anout 2% of the labor's slavary. Colonist were upset about that. The American Revolution cause by the taxes of the colonies. Boston Tea party is the first protest of colonies to the England ,because the tax on the tea. However, I was also confuse. The tax rate in colonies is very low, but why did the colonies want to protest for the tax. As we know that rebellion will cause a lot of people to die. Did it remarkble ?
