Which of the following was included in Patrick Henry's Virginia Resolves? Colonists could be taxed only by colonial assemblies.
Verizon [17]

The correct answer is: Colonists could be taxed only by colonial assemblies.

The Virginia Resolves were a response by the House of Burgesses to the proclamation of the Stamp Act of 1765 by the Parliament of Great Britain, which imposed direct taxes on the American Colonies. They were a series of resolutions claiming that since in the Parliament of Great Britain there were no colonial representatives, therefore they have no right of taxation, because it was stipulated by law that only the persons chosen by the colonists could represent them and know what taxes people were able to bear.

alina1380 [7]

The decision was taken by the US Supreme Court in the case Marbury v. Madison makes the US democracy more stable.

In this case, Marbury v. Madison the US Supreme Court declared that is the job of the US Supreme Court to rule if a law is constitutional or not. This puts limits on the Congress power and it is one of the limits given to the judiciary branch by the checks and balances system. This makes democracy more stable because the Constitution is the base of everything and it will be preserved.
