What argument does the author counter in this excerpt from thomas paine’s common sense

The argument that Thomas Paine counters in this excerpt from his pamphlet “Common Sense,” highlights that the British didn’t and will not provide adequate resources for the growth and development of its colonies.

Explanation:
