Explanation

Georgia’s trustees restricted slavery, rum, and how settlers could own and pass down land. The malcontents objected to these limits and wanted enslaved labor, fewer restrictions on rum, and more freedom to own and inherit land. Their complaints were not about mercantilism or allowing Catholics to live in the colony.
