It created resentment and harmed the economy

Explanation:

The Acts created taxes and attacked Civil Liberties and it was seen as an injustice by the colonists. The economy suffered a negative impact since taxes had to be paid for tea and for anything that was printed. Colonists were angered by the fact that taxes could be raised even though they had no representation in the Westminster Parliament.
