Correct answer:  C) a plan to use laser technology to defend America against missiles

Background/context:

In 1983, Reagan proposed the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), which was a plan for a space-based missile defense system against any threat of Soviet missiles.  Sometimes people referred to Reagan's plan as "Star Wars," because of the original idea to use lasers.  The plan ultimately developed into defensive missiles that could target and shoot down incoming offensive missiles.  More than 200 billion dollars were devoted to the Strategic Defense Initiative over the next four decades after the program was started.

In what ways do the colonists deserve better treatment?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Fair taxes

Local self-rule

Representation in the British parliament

Explanation:

American colonists deserve better treatment in many ways. Some of which includes:

1. Fair taxes: American colonists deserve to have a fair tax system. Towards the beginning of the American Revolutionary War, the British government levied so many taxes on the colonists which were considered unreasonable and exorbitant to pay.

2. Local self-rule: American colonists deserve local self-rule. All the governors in the thirteen colonies were appointed by the British Crown and they all came from Great Britain.

3.Representation in the British parliament: The American colonists deserve representation in the British parliament. This is based on the fact that they need to have people to represent them in conveying what they want and need in the colonies.
