1)Indeed, salutary neglect enabled the American colonies to prosper by trading with non-british entities, and then to spend that wealth on British-made goods,while at the same time providing Britain with raw materials for manufacture

2) The end of the British policy of Salutary neglect

they had been allowed to flout the navigation Acts for years-it had become their custom and practise and a direct result of salutary neglect. And then, to add insult to injury, the British were slashing their profits still further through the new taxes.
