OUR  AMERICAN  HISTORY  MARCH  18,

 1766-    After much protest, England repeals the Stamp Act. This tax was imposed upon the Colonies by Parliament to pay for the defense of the colonies during the recent French and Indian War. The tax was on any kind of printed material, newspaper, even playing cards. The colonists felt that they were taxed enough already and that this additional tax was made without their input or consent, “It was taxation without representation”.

{Today we have changed; we now have “taxation with representation”}
