All right And chalmers argues that great britain cares for
- 00:44
its subjects and provides the best possible life for which
- 00:48
is the following statements Best describes the way he would
- 00:51
have responded to this plane Answer choices are Fighting that
- 00:59
party well now admittedly pain might have preferred to just
- 01:03
respond Uh suck lemons chalmers the's options give us some
- 01:07
slightly more tactical options but which is the correct response
- 01:11
Well first we've got to go back to the argument
- 01:13
that pain's making he thinks it's time for the colonies
- 01:16
to shed their authoritative british rule and form a new
- 01:20
democracy that can ensure mutual prosperity So it's pretty unlikely
- 01:24
he'd advocate throwing in the towel and putting off independents
- 01:27
Dodie isn't no and given pains caustic criticism of britain
- 01:31
Well he probably wouldn't respond by advocating the future benefits
- 01:35
of a partnership with england Still pain doesn't deny the
- 01:38
great britain has had some positive influence in the past
- 01:42
He uses that metaphor about britain nurturing the colonies like
- 01:45
a baby being nurtured with milk So unless that was
- 01:48
some very sour mill while he's clearly admitting that a
- 01:51
relationship with great britain has had at least some purpose
- 01:55
instead pain is arguing using his common sense uh he's
- 02:01
admitting that britain has helped the colonies in the past
- 02:04
but now he wants independence from its tyrannical rule and
- 02:08
that's come back anyone would be proud of Especially you
- 02:11
because you're so not as good at comebacks Do these 00:02:15.168 --> [endTime] things really are
