Answer 1

Answer:

requiring citizens to obey all commands and laws imposed by the government without question

requiring citizens to set aside a portion of their property for the exclusive use of the government

Explanation:

In the 1800s, there was a school of thought then that focused on the reasoning of man and how logic and rationality is the driving force and main source of authority and clamored for ideals such as being tolerant, compassionate, obedience to constitutional authority within reason, et cetera. This movement was known as The Enlightenment.

Therefore, according to the principles of The Enlightenment, the following would be inappropriate requiring citizens to obey all commands and laws imposed by the government without question and requiring citizens to set aside a portion of their property for the exclusive use of the government because these actions are not rational.
