Explanation:

1. Based on historical - context analysis of Thomas Paine's views, for the first question, Paine likely saw American product exports like corn as a means to assert American economic independence from Britain. He believed in the economic potential of America outside of British - controlled trade.
2. For the second question, "every quiet method for peace hath been ineffectual" and "nothing but blows will do" imply that all non - violent attempts at achieving peace with Britain have failed, and thus, force may be the only remaining option.
3. Paine felt that Great Britain could not govern the colonies in the future because of the growing differences in interests, the vast distance between Britain and the colonies, and the colonies' increasing self - sufficiency and desire for self - rule.
4. When Paine says Britain is a "power, who is so very ignorant of" something, he likely means that Britain is out of touch with the realities and needs of the American colonies, and its policies are based on misunderstandings and a lack of awareness of the colonies' situation.
