Thomas Paine is contradicting the notion that the colonies continue to depend on Britain for protection and governance.
Explanation:
Thomas Paine wrote his "Common Sense" to advocate for the independence of the American colonies from the rule of the Britishers. He puts a counterclaim to the notion that Britain should continue to have a connection with America.
According to him, Britain had done nothing for American development nor will that ever happen in the future too. The only reason Britain is with America is for her own benefit and not for the American nation. There will be no positive outcome in keeping the British-American nations together. His pamphlet encourages and implores the people to fight for their rightful property of having their independence from any rule. Using moral and political arguments in it, he gave a convincing argument for the need of the American independence.
