Answer: A. The national Government was unable to collect taxes.

Explanation:

The Articles of Confederation (1781) was characterized for granting full independence to the states at the expense of a weak central government.

Under this Constitution, the national government consisted of a Congress who had few powers like the power to declare war, appoint military officers, sign treaties, make alliances, appoint foreign ambassadors and manage relations with Indians tribes. However, it was not authorized to draft soldiers in case of war and it was unable to collect taxes: it could only raise money by asking the states for funds (which had the option to reject the request), by borrowing from foreign governments, or selling western lands.

Andru [333]

<span>In American politics, a "single-issue interest group" means an organization that is (or claims to be) devoted exclusively to advocating one particular position on one particular policy issue. An "organization" might be a non-profit or a non-governmental organization (NGO), or a labor union, or a trade association, or a concerned citizens' group. Single-issue groups usually claim to be non-partisan (i.e., they support initiatives regardless of whether Democrats or Republicans advance them).
