The Sale Of Goods Act

Patrick Henry had once said, “Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and Slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!” In the 1760’s the British Parliament created the Stamp Act for the British Colonies.

In any nation’s creation, there is most certainly a point in time at which the country does not exist and a point at which it does. Unfortunately, it is nearly impossible to single out the exact events that mark these points. This is especially true in American history, where upon first glance many events could have marked the birth of the nation America is today. With research, however, it is evident that the Stamp Act was the true mark of no return in American history. When the act came into law in 1765, there was a growing resentment from colonists towards British parliament in regard to taxes. England actually paid more in taxes, but Americans felt they had done a lot for Britain and were concerned about England interfering with their

     The passing of the Stamp Act by Parliament in 1765 caused a rush of angry protests by the colonists in British America that perhaps "aroused and unified Americans as no previous political event ever had." It levied a tax on legal documents, almanacs, newspapers, and nearly every other form of paper used in the colonies. Adding to this hardship was the need for the tax to be paid in British sterling, not in colonial paper money. Although this duty had been in effect in England for over half a century and was already in effect in several colonies in the 1750?s, it called into question the authority of Parliament over the overseas colonies that had no representation therein.

1) The Stamp Act Congress consisting of twenty-seven delegates from nine of the colonies. They met and passed resolutions that were meant to make Parliament repeal the Stamp Act. However, they still insisted that they were subjects of the king. They never tried to split themselves from Britain. In fact, while they were protesting taxations without representation, they still claimed obedience to the government. All they wanted was to reform the acts, not stop being British or remove all British government. By the definition given, they were trying to remove the imperfections, as they saw it, of the stamp act to make the British government over them better.

The paper will serve as a historical background overview of how the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC) came into existence. The paper will also break down the key components for which the FTC covers, such as deceptive advertising, baiting and switching and consumer fraud. There will be examples

Everyday you consume things may it be food, drinks, or prescription drugs. Most people will just absent mindedly intake these products subconsciously knowing that they are monitored by government organizations ensuring your safety. It has not always been that was and has progressed greatly throughout the years. although all consumer safety organizations may not be reputable, they do much more good than harm. Consumer safety is something that is extremely important to the American family, and has help thousands of people survive. Consumer safety is something that has allowed America to progress to where it is today.

“No Taxation without Representation.” Everyone has heard this quote, but how many know where it came from? In March of 1765, British Parliament passed a law that the colonists must pay a tax on any licenses, contracts, wills, warrants, playing cards, and paper. Every one of these things had to have a stamp on it to show that they paid the tax. (Stamp Act Powerpoint) This was called the Stamp Act. The Stamp Act was the most important event that caused the Revolutionary War.

During the Stamp Act of 1765, the American colonists successfully repealed the tax by lobbying. Unfortunately this resulted in the failed attempt to end taxation without representation. The Stamp Act crisis occured prior to the Revolutionary War from 1765-1766. It was one of the important influences of the start of the war ten years later. The Americans demonstrated their courage many times throughout history, and it was shown during this crisis.

The French and Indian War caused Britain to go into debt. Parliament decided that the colonists had to take part in paying the debt. So, they passed acts that taxed British goods. When the colonists found out they had to pay taxes without representation, they were furious. One act that the colonists were upset by was the Stamp Act. The colonists´ reactions brewed up a lot of tension which led to the formation of the United States of America.

I was at school, during history I told Mr.Bush if the Stamp Act was enacted. Some historians believe that the Stamp Act was one of the most ridiculous enactments because the British taxed everything the colonists bought from the British. Even though it was a good way of raising money,(the British did not have enough money after the French and Indian war) it was unnecessary. The British could have raised money multiple different ways, like conquering another area or mining in the mountains near the colonies, but instead of these ways the British created the most ridiculous enactments in U.S. history. They made multiple families suffer from financial problems. That is why the colonists protested against the Stamp Act. This is also why people burned down tax collectors houses they felt like the took their freedoms away.

During the 7 Years War, the British were spending a lot of money to support their military, and they looked to fix this by adding more taxes for the colonists to pay. The colonists were already angry about their taxation situation, already dealing with the Sugar Act of 1764 and the Quartering Act of 1765. Then, Prime Minister George Grenville proposed the Stamp Tax in 1765 in order to raise revenue to support the military in their battle against the French. The Stamp Act mandated the use of stamped paper or the affixing of stamps certifying payment of tax. The majority of Americans became extremely agitated with this act as well as many others before and after the Stamp Act because they felt that their individual rights were being infringed

In 1906, the Pure Food and Drug Act, that was years in the making was finally passed under President Roosevelt. This law reflected a sea change in medicine-- an unprecedented wave of regulations. No longer could drug companies have a secret formula and hide potentially toxic substances such as heroin under their patent. The law required drug companies to specify the ingredients of medications on the label. It also regulated the purity and dosage of substances. Not by mere coincidence was the law passed only about five years after Bayer, a German based drug company began selling the morphine derivative, heroin. Thought to be a safe, non-habit forming alternative to morphine, heroin quickly became the “cure-all drug” that was used to treat
