Answer:

c

Explanation:

Thoreau wanted people to understand that a government could make mistakes.Being chosen by the majority, for him, did not mean that the decisions taken by that government were legitimate.He thought that presenting his own experience would help showing how unfair  the system was.Then he went to jail and suffered this unjustice himself.
