Why did King George III strictly enforce the Navigation Acts? Britain was losing money in trade with the colonies. Britain wanted to expand trade and needed more resources from the colonies. Britain wanted the colonies to pay for part of the cost of the French and Indian War. George II wanted to show the colonies his power.

The war was costly and Britain was in debt. They felt that the colonists should pay the debt because Britain felt that they fought for the colonist's, or in their favor, in a way.
