But there were many other reasons, among them being they were being wrongfully, extravagantly taxed for common goods without proper representation in the British Parliament. And because they had no representation in Parliament, they were powerless. That was one huge reason.
He influenced the debate over Independence by writing the 50-page pamphlet called the Common Sense.

Thomas Paine's publication of Common Sense called for a manifesto to be published explaining why the American Colonies were forced to break ties with Britain. That manifesto was later published and is known as the Declaration of Independence.
