Every consequence has its causation and it is inevitable to pay for the result of its action. Coercive Acts, also known as Intolerable Acts, was a series of a law passed by the angry British Empire after continuous conflicts with colonies. No matter how angry the colonial people would be, if the actions that had been taken were unlawful, then they should pay the price for it and seek forgiveness. However, this was not the case for the Boston tea party and how they reacted toward the British Empire. To begin with, the Boston Tea party was a rebellion against the British Empire by the Sons of Liberty: they threw 342 chests of tea into the Boston Harbor. The tea act was an act that triggered them; it was an act to make the colonists purchase tea on which the Townshend duties were paid. No matter how bad the colonists might feel about the actions they should have followed the law that has been passed by the British Empire since the law is presented to be followed.
According to fellow philosopher John Lockes belief, The law of nature binds all human beings to the pursuit of life, liberty, and property. (Locke) This is one of the famous quotes spoken by notable English Philosopher John Locke. And the action that has taken by the Sons of Liberty broke the part in which property was involved. Additionally, Locke stated, rebellion, revolution, and treason are not legitimate responses to merely bad administration , which aligns with my ideology. The reason that people form governments is to protect their property and by agreeing to agree to be judged by the government and accept the decisions that have been made by the government, which gives each individual the benefits of increased order and security. Hence the ownership of private property is one of the major causes of the existence of the state. Even though Bostonians and colonists might felt that the law was a little too harsh on them, it was passed due to their bad deeds and it would not be enacted if they stick to the British Empire in the first place: diligently paying the taxes to the British Empire and act accordingly to the British Empire. Related to Samuel Johnson, an English writer who contributed to English literature in various aspects, stated that A tax is a payment, exacted by authority, from part of the community, for the benefit of the whole. From whom, and in what proportion such payment shall be required, and to what uses it shall be applied, those only are to judge to whom the government is entrusted. In the British dominions, taxes are apportioned, levied, and appropriated by the states assembled in parliament . This statement agrees with my idea of why taxes should be paid and the duties of colonists are justified. The British Empire provided the protection of the country and supported the flourishment of country by helping the colonists in various aspects every empire is required to perform their duty of taxation because they all share the benefits of government, and, therefore, ought all to provide their proportion of the expense.
Lastly, we should consider the downside of the economy by going against the British Empire and consider the farmers and merchants economic interests: keep the trading flowing and prevent agitators from putting a restraint on it. It does not require rocket science to figure out that if the quantity of goods gets decreased due to the importation ceasing in New York, the prices will gradually increase. Furthermore, because of the non-importation and non-exportation movement held by the radical patriots, farmers, and merchants are in great danger of making profits or even maintaining their current situation. The following statement was from Samuel Seabury which I agree with, From the day that the exports from this province are stopped, the farmers may date the commencement of their run . What is the point of producing crops and farm goods when you cannot sell them? If Congress was attentive to the least common interests of farmers and merchants, this would never happen. They do not give or care about your circumstances and your well-being. Additionally, if Great Britain decided to close up the ports stirred by the Non-Importation Agreement or the Non-Exportation act passed by Congress then the economy of farmers and merchants will undoubtedly collapse. Since many farmers and merchants are in debt, they will be in a situation where they cannot even pay the interest on the money they have borrowed. The last thing we ever want to do is provoke the British Empire by going against them and adhering to the beliefs of radical patriots and mobs.
