Ninth: except for important considerations, no importation should be allowed under any circumstances of commodities of which the

re is a sufficient supply of suitable quality at home; and in this matter neither sympathy nor compassion should be shown foreigners, be they friends, kinsfolk, allies, or enemies... And this holds good, even if the domestic commodities are of poorer quality, or even higher priced. For it would be better to pay for an article two dollars which remain in the country than only one which goes out, however strange this may seem to the ill-informed."

The correct answer is <span>C) Colonists would be expected to buy goods only from Great Britain to retain all of it's hard currency, even if those goods are of inferior quality.

Colonists were expected to only trade with Britain and all other foreign trade was forbidden because Britain wanted to be the only one who earns money from the colonies. These policies were met with high discontent in the colonies and only infuriated locals even more.</span>
