Why did the United States adopt a policy to not directly tax the goods it exports?

Because of boycottings

Explanation:

As Britain was starting to tax the colonies, the colonists were unhappy and started their "no taxation without representation"

this led to colonists making their own utensils so they did not have to pay tax

workers should be given a fair share of the wealth their work creates

hope this
