England's new colonial policy after the Seven Years" War sparked ambition in the colonists in various ways. It is the leading step towards the war for independence. The Seven Years" War cost England a lot of money. England needed a way to pay back all the war debts, so they decided to tax the colonists. England's taxation without representation brought on the American Revolution.
Numerous factors from the aftermath of the Seven Years" War inspired the ideas of the American Revolution. England, after spending most of its funds on the war, needed a way to regain their lost money. The war exposed the weakness of British administrative control while the royal governments wielded it. The government had borrowed heavily from the British and Dutch bankers to finance the war, and the national debt had almost double, from 75 million in 1754 to 133 million in 1763. The Burgesses resorted to deficit financing, printing paper currency in amounts sufficient to pay the province's bills. The English government thought of many ideas but could only resolve on one, taxing the colonists.
The Great War for Empire brought an end to the era of salutary neglect. The continued growth of British trade and national power depended on the reform of imperial administration and taxation. The government increased excise levies, sales taxes on goods such as salt and beer and distilled spirits. The colonists were infuriated when they heard of taxation. In Virginia the assembly refused to levy additional taxes to pay for the war, but the stubborn English did not care. They administered many acts of taxation to colonial America. Before the war, Americans bribed the colonial custom officials to avoid the Molasses Act of 1773. Grenville announced intentions of a colonial stamp tax the following year of the Sugar Act in 1764 which would tax New England on any paper documents such as letters to playing cards. While Parliament is making money off New England, the colonists could not take it anymore.
