a newspaper called Colonial Times from April 1764. The article is called The Taxman Hits Again! It reads, 'The government of Great Britain has decided to change its taxes in the North American colonies. The Sugar Act of 1764 replaces the old Molasses Act of 1733, imposing taxes on the purchase of imported goods like sugar, fabric, and coffee. This Act gives Britain control over trade in its North American colonies in the hopes of raising money to pay for the recent war. How are colonists reacting to this new tax? Not well. Many do not like having to pay more tax to Britain. It is disrupting their economies, making it more expensive for the colonies to trade with other countries.'
