Help with History?
I'm kind of at odds with the Grandson's lesson tonight. I'm thinking the Articles of Confederation sound pretty good up against what we live under now. It's all in the POV I guess, but I don't want to raise a Federal Government lover? What do you guys think about it?

There was no strong national government.At least nine of the 13 states had to agree on any law or decision.No single leader controlled the government.Congress could not raise a national army without the permission of the states.Congress could not collect taxes.Congress could not make laws about trade.Unemployment is not working.
