D. people who made more money pay a higher percentage in taxes

The People's Party, or Populists, wanted an income tax put into place that would require the wealthy to pay a higher percentage of taxes than lower income brackets.

Many of the goals of the Populist Party were to bring down the power and wealth of the top 1% by making them contribute more to the overall well-being of the country. An income tax would bring in more revenue and reduce the wealth of the most powerful. This would also allow the government to reduce taxes paid by farmers to use transportation systems.

Why did the founding fathers create a weak central government under the articles of Confederation?

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

This was because of widespread fear of a strong central government at the time they were written and strong loyalties among Americans to their own state as opposed to any national government during the American Revolution, the Articles of Confederation purposely kept the national government as weak as possible and the states as independent as possible. However, this led to many of the problems that became apparent once the Articles took effect.
