Question

What changes do you think needed to be made to the Articles of Confederation in order to have an effective government?

Answer 1

Answer:

The power to tax the states by the Federal government.

The articles of confederations provided the states government with somewhat stronger power compared to the central government. This made the central government had very little power to stop the states in case any of them did something that causing problems for other states.

On top of that, the central government also experience difficulties in obtaining funding to pay for proposed programs that created on national scale.
