Answer:

Correct answer is D. The tax system treated everyone fairly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option D is correct because there were large differences in France between members of different classes. Third class, the so-called bourgeoise was paying most of the taxes and had the worst position.

Option A is not correct as Louis XIV inherited large debts from his predecessors, which was cause by multiple wars that country was leading, including the Seven Years War. That is why B is also not correct.

Option C is also not correct as king himself together with royalty was spending unbelievably large amounts that led country to bankrupt.
