Why did the colonists feel unable to pursue "happiness" under British rule?

They were too heavily taxed to support their own economy, and felt that
taxation without representation was unjust.
They missed England and felt that the British government was not involved
enough to keep them happy.
They were happy and most colonist did not feel the need to separate from
British rule.
