The correct answer is D. by raising taxes in the American colonies without granting the colonies any representation in Parliament.
The intolerable acts, the Stamp Act and the Tea acts were put in place in all the thirteen North American colonies to increase their revenues.
However, the colonists considered all these moves as an act of injustice; they also felt that if Britain regarded the colonists to be its citizens, then it would amount to an act of impunity to pass any law without their consents.
The colonists protested that such laws wouldn’t stand because they didn’t have a direct representation when the acts were enacted.
The passage of the stamp act, tea act, and intolerable acts encourage the colonists to consider a revolution against the British rule.

Andrew Carnegie was one of the richest businessmen and philanthropist in the United States history and he earned his multimillionaire wealth thanks to the steel industry. He also wrote the Gospel of Wealth, a book where he says
"The budget presented in the British Parliament the other day proposes to increase the death duties; and, most significant of all, the new tax is to be a graduated one. Of all forms of taxation this seems the wisest. Men who continue hoarding great sums all their lives, the proper use of which for public ends would work good to the community from which it chiefly came, should be made to feel that the community, in the form of the State, cannot thus be deprived of its proper share. By taxing estates heavily at death the State marks its condemnation of the selfish millionaire's unworthy life."
