People in Great Britain paid 26 shillings a year while people in New England paid 1 shilling. British citizens paid 25 more shilling than citizens of New England-JORGE M

# data[].attributes.body
The people who lived in Britain had to pay 26 shillings per year which is 25 shillings greater than the amount that people in New England had to pay.

In the beginning it seemed like a reasonable price because people were still adjusting to living in America and the economy is still building. It more seems like the people who lived in Britain were being taxed too much.
