The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Thomas Pain described life in Boston as a good city to live in; a peaceful place. But the English came and forced many taxes and regulations that made people feel like they are prisoners of the English colony. That is why he thinks England should not be governing the colonies.

Thomas Pain was an English thinker that while staying in America wrote the pamphlet "Common Sense" at the end of 1775 and publish it on January 9, 1776. In the 47 page document, Pain elaborated on his arguments that invited people to support independence from Britain.

-he describes it as if boston have nothing, and that they are going through a tough time, and that the people there are prisoners, the situation boston is in shows that the government shouldn't govern the colonies because it's damaging boston in a way, and the prisoners are left with nothing.
