Answer:

In order to protect states' rights, the Articles set strict limits on congressional authority. Under the Articles, the states, not Congress had the power to tax. Congress could raise money only by asking the states for funds, borrowing from foreign governments, and selling western lands.

the Articles of Confederation allowed each state only one vote in Congress. Which question reflects a major concern states had a
Lena [83]

Many political figures at the time felt representation in Congress should be based on the amount of free men each state had and their "quota of contribution". Notably, James Madison drafted the Virginia Plan with this proposition in mind. States with a large population (Virginia being the biggest at the time), would therefore have more representatives than smaller states. Naturally, large states backed up this plan, while smaller states were against it.

In the end the issues were settled on the Connecticut Compromise, which ensured the creation of a House of Representatives apportioned by population, and a Senate in which each state is equally represented.


Hope this helps!

What are the most convincing reasons for not prosecuting nixon
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The main reasons for not prosecuting Nixon would be to save the country further embarrassment and to prevent further division.  Our country was at a very low point then.  Drawing out the process would have only made things worse in the long run.
