Correct choices: They are not elected; They are funded by the populace; They are easily influenced.
Paine argued monarchy and hereditary succession are illegitimate because rulers aren't chosen by the people, rely on public support (taxes) for their power, and are subject to human frailty and outside influence. He did not primarily base his critique on monarchs' lack of education.
