Based upon the allocation of points discussed before, one should give this theory 15 points of importance. This is because although there were conflicts between England's economic interests and the colonists" economic interests, it alone would not be enough to start the Revolutionary war. England wanted mercantilism so they could make more money as well as regulate all commercial interests, and the colonists wanted landed and industrial economies so each town could be given more land, as well as towards the individual people. The conflicts that this disagreement caused led many merchants and labor men to join the rebellion. But there are other theories that had a larger affect, in recruiting more Patriots, than the economic theory.
The next theory, political interpretation, caused many hostilities between England and the colonies. If one were to rank this theory, just as the other two have, political interpretation should receive 15 points. This is because the British government had many problems within itself, such as disagreements within Parliament. This created even larger problems when trying to govern a completely different country, hundred of miles away. Unless it was the British soldiers direct from England, most commands given by the British government were not followed through with complete success. This works the other way as well, because some ideas from the colonies were not heard, but merely disregarded, once they were delivered to those in England. The problem with the British government, as a whole, and all the small details that follow did manage to create problems and conflicts between the two countries, but it alone would also not be enough to create and start the Revolutionary war. This is because the only people who really dealt with this problem was the elite and the higher educated, although some middle class dealt with the problem as well. But the only people who would know how to act resistant to the English were also smart enough to know not to cause a complete rebellion.
