<em>D. The Declaration of Independence outlined a relationship between individuals and the government but did not detail the power and control of that government.</em>
Explanation:
The Articles of Confederation was known for its many weaknesses. It gave little to no power to the central government, which made Americans eventually uneasy and lead to the creation of the Declaration of Independence.
The Articles was very weak and granted the central government barely any power that it needed. The government could not tax the states, they had to out right ask the states for money. This lead to the United States not being able to pay off war debts, or other important things that were valuable to keeping up a country. The government also couldn't regulate trade, which was very important during this time and keep up the wealth and importance of the United States. They also couldn't do things such as enforcing laws and passing new laws, they needed many of the states approval before doing anything.
The people who were in support of creating a new constitution were the Federalists, but those who wanted to keep a small government were called Anti-Federalists. Anti-Federalists were most likely scared of a big government because they didn't want the government to abuse their power. They didn't want a repeat of what happened with Great Britain, with "<em>taxation without representation</em>" and not letting people voice opinions, practice different religions, or pass absurd laws that would overall damage individuals. Federalists felt that keeping the government this way was hurting the United States and they should be represented by a big government, obviously not one that was abusive, but one that could get things done while still having the people in mind.
When the Declaration of Independence was created, most of the people focused on the relationship between the government and the people, as it was a hot topic in the past. Many people wanted to make sure the government would not get out of hand and to maintain the good relationship between having a bigger government and the wishes of the American citizens.
Many people also felt that the Articles of Confederation was still needed, as that properly dictated how much power the government could hold, while the Declaration of Independence mostly focused on the relationship between the individuals and the government.

"The mistaken policy of the Stamp Act first disturbed this happy
situation; but the flame thereby raised was soon extinguished by its
repeal, and the old harmony restored, with all its concomitant advantage
to our commerce. The subsequent act of another administration, which,
not content with an established exclusion of foreign manufactures, began
to make our own merchandise dearer to the consumers there, by heavy
duties, revived it again; and combinations were entered into throughout
the continent to stop trading with Britain till those duties should be
repealed. All were accordingly repealed but one, the duty on tea. This
was reserved (professedly so) as a standing claim and exercise of the
right assumed by Parliament of laying such duties." ~ Benjamin Franklin
"Patriotism is as much a virtue as
justice, and is as necessary for the support of societies as natural
affection is for the support of families." ~ Benjamin Rush - Patriot and Physician
"In about three hours from the time we
went on board, we had thus broken and thrown overboard every tea chest
to be found on the ship, while those in the other ships were disposing
of the tea in the same way, at the same time. We were surrounded by the
British armed ships, but no attempt was made to resist us...And it was
observed at that time that the stillest night ensued that Boston had
enjoyed for many months." ~ George Hewes Boston Tea Party - Eye Witness Account
"We were merry, in an undertone, at the idea of making so large a cup of tea for the fishes." ~ Joshua Wyeth
