What was the Sugar Act and how was it viewed from the colonists point of view?

The British had fought a 7 years war against the French. This effort was to protect the colonist. The war ended in 1763. A standing army of 10,000 men remained to ensure protection. The British government decided that the colonist should in part pay the cost of this army. The Sugar tax and other measures (tax on tea -tax on paper etc.) were all in -direct taxation system designed to raise revenue to help with the costs. They all failed. They simply encouraged smuggling. Too many colonists did not want to pay and more importantly did not want the British to impose taxes in general on them. Those colonists who wished to be independent from Britain used this opportunity - events led to the War of Independence. Those who rebelled against the British became known as patriots.
