The correct answer is B) Only states could raise taxes, so the national government had a hard time paying its debts and expenses.

Ther Articles of Confederation was America's first constitution after breaking away from Great Britain. One of the main questions when developing this constitution was who would have the power to tax. Considering that taxation without representation was one of the causes for America's decision to leave Great Britain, it helps us to understand why this power was not given to the federal government. Rather, this power was given to state governments as citizens interacted more with their state government rather than the federal government.
