The Sugar Act had multiple effects. First, it was considered too strict and costly for merchants in America, but not in the British West Indies. It was passed during a depression in the colonial economy. It also contributed to the growth in smuggling, for the production and distribution of rum. It was also a contributing factor leading to the American Revolution.
