The British Parliament were imposing very high taxes on all products that were being shipped to the colonies. The colonists had no way to voice their objections within the British government because there was no one to represent them. This caused the colonists to increase their desire to gain their independence.
The colonists objected to King George oppressively taxing them to control there exports so they would only export the raw materilas to England. It is similar to the actions of Ney York State and New York City oppressive cigarette tax. It is taxing people as a way of forcing them to act in a certain way.
