Result that the taxation of the people by themselves, or by persons, chosen by themselves to represent them, is the only security against the burdensome taxation
Which statement best explains why this resolution was adopted
This resolution was adopted because it reflects the principle of taxation with representation, a fundamental aspect of democratic governance. By allowing the people to have a say in taxation through representatives chosen by them, it ensures that taxation is fair and not burdensome, as decisions on taxes are made by those who are directly affected by them. This helps to prevent abuse of power by those in authority and ensures that taxation is in line with the interests and needs of the people.
