Asked by Maria


Can someone help me please. I am having a hard time answering this question.

Do you think Great Britain was justified in imposing taxes on the colonies following the French and Indian War? Or do you believe the colonists had legitimate grievances regarding the British policy of taxing them? Could Britain have handled the situation better, and if so, how? And, were the grievances of the colonies really so great that independence was the only recourse? Could a compromise have been found? What form might it have taken?

After I did some research I found that Great Britain had every right to impose taxes. Great Britain invested money into american colonies, solider, food and shelter which ultimately caused them to go into depth. This is all I got so far. Can anyone further assist me. Thank you

I only had to answer that question if I didn't agree with imposing taxes. I am looking into the other questions now

But you agreed the British had the right to impose taxes.

This is a matter of opinion. Personally, I think it was not fair to stick the bill for a war on the colonies by taxing them when they weren't even getting representation in the government.
