The correct prediction is B: the King expected the colonists to help finance the French and Indian War, which upset the colonists. The war left Britain with significant debt, which led to increased taxes on the colonies, creating resentment due to their lack of representation. This growing dissatisfaction set the stage for the American Revolution.
