Answer:
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
The statement under option A states that the founding fathers were of the opinion that the imposition of taxes itself was not wrong or unjust. Their issue was with its imposition without proper representation in the decision making process of the tax system. Consent here implies that since the colonial leaders did not have proper representation in the British Court or Parliament where taxation matters were discussed, legislated upon, and imposed, their imposition was thus unjust which became one of the reasons behind the Declaration.
