Noah Morales · Answer 1

The best of these options would be A:the colonists wanted no more taxes. Ideally, the person who created this question would have realized the issue here. The colonists were not against taxes, but against indirect taxes. They did not want to be taxes for no specific reason. However, since your professor has not recognized this, A would be the best available answer.
