Answer:
(B) high taxes for all three Estates.
Explanation:
In the late eighteenth century towards the French Revolution, the French experienced certain problems that largely affected the sociopolitical and economic landscape of the country. Some of which includes:
1. High food prices, including bread due to shortage of food.
2. An increase in the national debt resulting from the indirect involvement of France in the American revolutionary war
3. A weak, indecisive king, King Louis XVI was widely believed to take actions in such a way that doesn't show direction or confidence
4. Food shortages due to bad harvests
5. Top class people or Estates such as clergy and nobility class were exempted from paying taxes.
Hence, in this case, the correct answer is "high taxes for all three Estates, " which is not part of the French problem during this period.
