Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

The people in England felt that it was acceptable to make to colonists pay taxes because they felt that they still owned the colonists and could push them around as they wished. They also needed the money to pay for war debt. It was also a reaction to the protests that the Americans were performing.
