The Articles of Confederation were very weak. They did not allow for a central government nor a way to tax the citizens in a uniform way. In response to the way taxes were being handled (one of the main weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation) and the debt crisis, Daniel Shay, a former malita officer, led a rebellion. This proved the need for a stronger central government, as the rebellion could not be put down, and a change to the way taxes were handled.
A command economy is one in which a centralized government controls the means of production and determines output levels. Command economies stand in contrast to free-market economies, those in which the law of supply and demand determines output and prices.
