Answer:

The complaints chosen were: Not able to trade freely  and Unfair taxes.

Explanation:

                                      Open letter to readers

Our country is hundreds of years old, our territory is rich, rich, productive and efficient. Our people are honest, hardworking and ready to take care of their own destiny, their own business and their own prosperity. Amidst all these admirable qualities I wonder: how long will we be subjected to the British abuses that prevent our nation from moving forward.

We are a captive people, as we have no control over our own resources, which have been exploited dishonestly by the British for years. First of all, we must stress that England forbids us to freely negotiate our products, produced and built, planted and harvested by us. This keeps us at the mercy of the English trade, which believes that it has the right to price our work in a way that reduces us and leaves us dependent on England.

We are not a dependent people and we have to reaffirm our supremacy over our products and our autonomy to do business as we see fit.

Not satisfied, England decided to enrich our costs by charging abusive and totally unjust taxes, which are not transformed into services for us but for them. As a result, england is increasingly educated and structured, while we do not have the financial resources to improve education, transportation, communication and countless socioeconomic issues in our country.

This makes me ask you, readers: How long will we accept this type of administration? Will we have to wait thousands of years? Haven't we already been harmed enough by this petty nation? Shouldn't we fight for our defense?
