//The Stamp Act// was a tax on printed goods from the everyday newspaper to every playing card pack. How did The Stamp Act get started? This is how: after //The French and Indian War//, which ended in 1763, Great Britain said the colonists should pay for the cost of the war. This made the colonists angry, because they never agreed to the tax. They felt they should not have to pay extra money on the goods, since they were not notified about the tax in the first place, and felt Great Britain should pay for the war’s costs instead, since it was their war.
