To avoid tax and tariffs from a central government

to protect the native rights of the people

Explanation:

After the American War of Independence, the leaders and founding members of the constitution created a weak central government in the Articles of Confederation due to the following reasons:

1. The leaders feared that a strong central government would revive a dictatorial government because of the experiences they had with the British Crown.

2. To avoid tax and tariffs from a central government that has nothing or very less to do with their economic lives. They firmly stood against 'taxation without representation' and believed that the central government cannot levy any taxes but only the state governments could.

3. They leaders wanted to protect the native rights of the people endowed by their own respective state governments. They feared that if too much of powers were given to the central government, it would take away some of their rights.

What is the difference between the due process protections in the Fifth Amendment and the Fourteenth Amendment, and why is that
madam [21]

The Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment is exactly like a similar provision in the fifth amendment, which only restricts the federal government. It states that no person shall be “ deprived of life, Liberty or property without due process of law”. Usually “due process” refers to fair procedures. However, the Supreme Court has also used this part of the Fourteenth Amendment to prohibit certain practices outright. For instance, the Court has ruled that the Due Process Clause protects rights that are not specifically listed in the Constitution, such as the right to privacy regarding sexual relations. In Roe v. Wade (1973), the Court ruled that this right to privacy included a woman’s decision to have an abortion. In addition, the Court used the Due Process Clause to extend the bill of rights to the states over time through a practice known as “incorporation”.

My Sincerest apology if this was not what you meant.
