Why did the Tea Act of 1773 prompt the forceful resistance of the Boston Tea Party in November 1773?
A) The Tea Act of 1773 financially disfavored the British East India Company tea, which was very popular in Boston and all of Massachusetts.
B) The Tea Act of 1773 enhanced enforcement by British custom officials and navy on the illegal importation of cheaper, smuggled tea from places other than Britain.
C) The Tea Act's attempt to force colonists to pay the newly imposed tea tax along with the continuing Townshend tea tax inflamed the existing tension and anger in Boston surrounding the Boston Massacre.
D) The strict enforcement of the Tea Act of 1773 resulted in multiple injuries and deaths of local merchants, traders, and townspeople.
