The Articles of Confederation is what this country started out with. The United States does not need a new constitution. The Articles of Confederation works just fine. Taxes are the reason we went to war against Britain and now they want to bring them back. A lot of men died fighting for independence. So they think it is a good idea to throw away everything those men died for. We do not need a strong central government that has total power. That is what Britain had, and that is one thing we hated about British rule. The states need the most power because they are closer to the people and can hear the problems and questions proposed by the people. It will also spread the power out and not let one person or group have total power.
The Constitution is what the United States needs. The central government has to have some more power in order to keep the country together. The Articles of Confederation gives most of the power to the states, which does not allow the central government to do anything. The central government can not regulate commerce, call up an army, and many other important matters. Another important thing that will be a part of the Constitution is taxes. The taxes are required for the country to grow and prosper. The taxes will go to building schools and buildings for the people of the United States. In order for this country to sustain itself, the central government needs more power. The Constitution will balance the power though. The central government will be given the power it needs to maintain the proper running of the country. The states will be given the power it needs to meet the needs and requests of its people. The Constitution will
make the country stronger and able to sustain itself for many years.
