Answer:

<u> Congress was dependent on the states for its money.</u>

Explanation:

Under the first US written Consitution, the Articles of Confederation, the government, consisting of a Congress only, could not tax people. The ways in which it raised money was by borrowing from foreign governments, selling western lands or asking the states for funds. This constituted one of the major weaknesses of the Constitution because it made the government dependent on the states for its money.
