Ok first you have to choose your stuff.
ok it dont matter which two i pick lol which do you think is best ?
let me see.
ok
@ronlover101
These are good • Not able to trade freely • Unfair taxes
ok i can use those what should i talk about them
Okay, @ronlover picked two for you. YOU must do the next step. Read the instructions and go for it. Write the headline!! What front page headline would grab your attention and give a hint about these two problems? YOIU write it.
ok one second ok
ya what that person said lol
ok this is why they couldnt trade freely but i just got a little info i need somone to add a little on please they were unable to trade freely because there were tariffs to prevent imports and exports, trade routes were protected to keep monopolies and the restrictions kept the flow of goods limited so prices remained high. @tkhunny
You haven't written the headline, yet. That's #2. Are these musings supposed to be historically accurate?
yes the instructions is all up there
Why are you not following the instructions. Write the headline!
ok can you start it off for me thats all i need thats what im haveing trouble with
We have no Declaration of Independence. We're still under England's boot. Make stuff up. Be creative. Write the headline. It can be just one word or a very short sentence. The MOST important thing to do when trying to write is to WRITE. Don't just sit and struggle. WRITE something - anything, Headline!!
idk man
oh my headline can be About our communities?
Good. That's wonderful! That's a start. "Earth" might be good. Are the Brits taking over and you don't like it? "About Our Communities" might be good. Do we have close communities and we wish the Brits would get out of our business.? Go!!! You got this.
yes i need a good star off though @tkhunny
*start
and remember i chose not able to trade freely and unfair taxes
Too bad. You were ding so well. Then you just stopped writing. Remember when I said "anything" and you just threw your hands in the air and literally wrote just whatever popped into your head? Do that again. I have to go. START WRITING! Now that you have a headline, tell us what the problem is. Make it as scary as you can with a clear conscience.
ok but its not simple i have to write a paragraph for unable to trade freely and unfair taxes so thats where im confused at @tkhunny
Stop Complaining and telling yourself that it is hard. Just WRITE! Yes, that's what I'm saying. Start WRITING and stop WORRYING. Just WRITE. Seriously. Those Brits have done it again!! As if those scoundrels burning my crops wasn't bad enough. I try to sell my cotton and the put a tariff on that. It rots in my field. I try to sell my tobacco and they tax that so much that I have to pay to get someone to take it. What next, our CHILDREN?! Someone is going to have to stand up. It is you? Is it me? Seriously, they need cotton in Massachusetts. I just ventured up there and met with several manufacturers. Trouble is, every parish border I cross there's another tax just for taking one more step. By the time I get to New York, I'm out of money and the cotton is worth nothing. I say, if I see any more Tories around my land, I'll introduce the to Mr. Browning's latest designs. There. That took me all of two minutes initially and another two to fluff it up a bit and correct a few spelling errors. It doesn't mean much. It's a little disjointed. It needs some work. So? Just WRITE! You have to trust me on this. There might be an anachronism or two. WRITE!! Stop stalling. WRITE!
