I WILL GIVE YOU BRAINLIEST In Common Sense, Thomas Paine argues that Americans have plenty of raw materials and other resources and could quickly build an American navy to challenge the Royal Navy. Do you think this argument is credible?

HTP

Explanation:YES I DO because Thomas Paine argues for American independence. His argument begins with more general, theoretical reflections about government and religion, then progresses onto the specifics of the colonial situation.Paine begins by distinguishing between government and society. Society, according to Paine, is everything constructive and good that people join together to accomplish. Government, on the other hand, is an institution whose sole purpose is to protect us from our own vices. Government has its origins in the evil of man and is therefore a necessary evil at best. Paine says that government's sole purpose is to protect life, liberty and property, and that a government should be judged solely on the basis of the extent to which it accomplishes this goal.
