D) He argues that it supports the belief that the colonies will continue to flourish.

Respuesta :

D. He argues that they could have done better on their own.

Answer:

A). He argues that they could have done better on their own.

Explanation:

'Common Sense' by Thomas Paine responds to the argument that advocated the idea that colonies prospered during British rule by a contrary statement where 'he argues that they could have done better on their own'.

Paine paid emphasis on proposing an impassioned and compelling argument that advocates the idea of independence where he describes that the government's sole aim is to safeguard the basic rights of their citizens and if it fails to maintain that it needs to be dethroned. He interrogated the entire structure of the British government and denied the previous claim that portrays the 'British government in a glorifying light'. He exclaims that 'they(colonies) are self-sufficient to ensure their growth and development". Thus, option A is the answer.
