The general cause of the American Revolution was that the government degenerated into destructiveness, and when a government degenerates into destructiveness, the people have a right to overturn it.For two reasons, "for taxing us without our assent," and "for denying us the advantages of jury trials in many circumstances," the government must get the consent of the governed in order to be just. The government's original goal was to safeguard the rights of the populace.According to the Declaration of Independence, if the government starts to harm its citizens, it must be overthrown and a new one installed in its place.Explanation:
