Answer:

Fair representation and compromise

Step-by-step explanation:

The issue wasn't that they were getting taxed, it's that they had no say over government and or taxes. "No Taxation Without Representation." So they most likely could have got them to pay the taxes if they gave them a place to speak in Parliament or the government in general.
