According to Paine, how do Britain and the King violate Natural Rights? Does not treat the colonies fairly or equally. Treats them more like a child without the same rights as an adult.

Britain also needed money to pay for its war debts. The King and Parliament believed they had the right to tax the colonies. ... They protested, saying that these taxes violated their rights as British citizens. The colonists started to resist by boycotting, or not buying, British goods.
