C is the correct answer.

Prior to the 14th Amendment, the view of the Supreme Court, as articulated in Barron v. Baltimore, was that the Bill of Rights only applied to the Federal Government.

After the 14th Amendment, the rights articulated in the Bill of Rights began to be understood as applying to the States as well.

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.
