Answer:

Because they were not allowed to help elect the people in the government.

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of the four choices, the last one seems the most reasonable to me.

Plus, the colonists felt that the British government had no right to tax them because they had no say in the British Parliament. Therefore, they didn't think it was fair.
