Our central government was very weak. So week that we couldn't even tax our own citizens, or colonist. Without taxes we could not make our military strong or deploy them. So then we were defenseless. That left us prone to attack. With the Articles of Confederation we had many weaknesses.]]> 2017-01-12 18:46:49 UTC https://padlet.com/anorstum/1bqm1cm3kzau/wish/146888425 https://padlet.com/anorstum/1bqm1cm3kzau/wish/146888441 During the articles of confederation the government could not tax and therefore it could not protect it's people with an army. it also had no separation of powers, seeing as it only had one branch of government.

They couldn't collect taxes to pay for military; they couldn't regulate trade; they didn't have one leader to represent America; each state got one vote no matter the population; each state was like an independent country. The states also didn't follow the rules because of how weak the government was, so the government couldn't stop them from breaking the law. When the Constitutional Convention took place and they announced a new government, the people were scared that they would loose their freedom, so the Founding Fathers ensured rights to the people.]]> 2017-01-12 18:47:02 UTC https://padlet.com/anorstum/1bqm1cm3kzau/wish/146888498 https://padlet.com/anorstum/1bqm1cm3kzau/wish/146888528 The Articles of Confederation had very many weaknesses. These weaknesses caused many problems. Many states acted as countries basically because the states had their own military, laws, and many other things. Many things could have gone wrong with having their own military. They also had to enforce their laws too. This wasn't fair to the people. This is why the U.S. Constitution was made. ]]> 2017-01-12 18:47:07 UTC https://padlet.com/anorstum/1bqm1cm3kzau/wish/146888528 https://padlet.com/anorstum/1bqm1cm3kzau/wish/146888535 The articles of confederation were weak because they couldn't tax the states.

Since there was only one branch of government, there was no executive nor a judicial branch. Without these two branches, you couldn't impose taxes. And without these taxes, the government couldn't pay back much money to others. Trading was hard without these changes due to not getting other resources that were highly needed. Trading also couldn't work for other countries, but all this was changed after the document was changed.]]> 2017-01-12 18:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/anorstum/1bqm1cm3kzau/wish/146888595 341251 https://padlet.com/anorstum/1bqm1cm3kzau/wish/146888600 With the articles of confederation there were many problems.They colonists feared the government taking away rights so they had a weak government.States didn't have to follow the rules.There wasn't an executive or judicial branch.Rules couldn't be enforced or debated.They didn't want to be taxed.This made it hard to support military and other things. There was no trade.This was hard for states who depended on certain things.The states didnt have to treat citizens from other states fairly.Each state got one vote which made the bigger states mad.These are just some of the problems.]]> 2017-01-12 18:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/anorstum/1bqm1cm3kzau/wish/146888600 https://padlet.com/anorstum/1bqm1cm3kzau/wish/146888631 The weakness of the articles of confederation they had different types of weakness  like the "states was independent and had its own government" ,"the states would send representatives to the congress , also is when the congress had no president  and was the only branch .
