17. why was the tea act created? how did the colonists react to it

The tea act didn't place an actual tax on tea. It was created to give a tax break to the east India Company, saving it from bankruptcy, and substantially lowering the tax it paid to the British Government. The colonists had a big problem with it and protested, causing the Coercive acts, aka the Intolerable acts. This closed Boston merchant shipping, established formal British military rule in Massachusetts, made British and required colonists to quarter British troops.

The tea act was created so the colonists could only buy tea from one place. the colonists were furious at the British for the stamp act, the quartering act, etc. so the British were not getting much money and that led to the Boston Tea Party.

Different trial court

hi there!

question - in the 1900s there were two competing views about the environment that often pitted industrialist and conservationist against one another. how were these two competing views demonstrated by the environmental policies of president roosevelt and president taft?

theodore had a quicked tempered personality while president taft was shy and barely noticable.theodore had started a dealing service with big companies which president taft completed.both were into making sure workers were always safe.president taft took the presidency more serious than theodore did.both loved to save nature.

hope this : )
