History
1 answer:
eimsori [14]3 years ago
7 0
The temperance movement, discouraging the use of alcoholic beverages, had been active and influential in the United States since at least the 1830s. Since the use of alcohol was often associated with such social ills as poverty and insanity, temperance often went hand in hand with other reform movements. From the 1850s onward, the temperance movement focused much of its efforts on Irish and German immigrants.

Why did Congress refrain from including the power the tax in the article of confederation?
skelet666 [1.2K]

Congress refrain from including the power the tax in the article of confederation "since they opposed tax regulation by government, like the empire, as they wanted taxes to be under states' power".

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Article of Confederations was the first constitution of the U.S. It was not adopted until 1781 and was presented by the Continental Congress in 1777. Under the Constitution the states had the power to tax, not Congress.

Only by requesting the states for funding, lending from foreign governments or selling western lands, representatives will raise money. A sequence of events that unfolded during the 1780s persuaded a group of political leaders that the Confederation Articles offered an insufficient policy structure.
