To extract more money from the Colonies, Grenville presided over a gaggle of new parliamentary tax measures. There were several, but we'll talk about three of the most significant.

1. The Sugar Act of 1764 tightened the enforcement of colonial tax collection. Though it did reduce the tax on sugar, it taxed a number of new items for the first time. In Grenville's estimation, the Sugar Act would help pay for the necessary expenses of defending, protecting, and securing, the said colonies and plantations.The Quartering Act of 1765 forced Americans to spend their own money to feed and house British troops stationed in the Colonies. The monetary burden, in addition to having gruff soldiers in their houses, incensed the colonists.The Stamp Act of 1764 required that all official colonial businesses use stamped paper, which required the payment of a tax. This measure affected most every colonist.

2. These examples are only the major points of Grenville's tax schemes. There were several others that attempted to squeeze more money out of America. However, many of these tax measures did the opposite of what Grenville sought. Instead of providing more revenue for the Crown, the Sugar Act, for instance, cost more to enforce than it brought in to the royal treasury. Nonetheless, Grenville continued to pass tax law after tax law.
