The Sugar Act Alarmed Colonists, in Part Because It

The Sugar Act alarmed colonists, in part because it:

A) increased the tax on molasses and made rum more expensive to produce.
B) made sugar, a key consumer good, too expensive.
C) mandated that violators of the act be tried in a court with a jury.
D) eliminated the admiralty courts, which colonists had long favored.
E) was an attempt to get them to pay a levy they would otherwise have evaded.
