Question

Which two ideas were expressed in Paine's Common Sense? a. Enslaved men and women deserved to live free, vote, and own property. b. The rise of an independent country in North America was inevitable. c. Respecting treaties with Native Americans was in everyone's best interest. d.
Government may be a "necessary evil"; but it didn't require a monarchy.

Answer 1

According to Thomas Paine:

• b. The rise of an independent country in North America was inevitable.
• d. Government may be a "necessary evil"; but it didn't require a monarchy.

In 1775, Thomas Paine authored a pamphlet titled "Common Sense" in which is tried to convince American colonists that they should break free of British control because:

• It made no sense that a small island like Britain would rule such a vast continent like North America which meant independence was inevitable.
• Monarchies were not representative governments so even though a government was needed, monarchies were not.
• A democracy would be best instead of being ruled by the King of England.

In conclusion therefore, Thomas Paine wanted a free America where the government would be chosen by the people instead of the small island nation of Britain.
