"When the Articles of Confederation were drafted Americans had little experience of what a national government could do for them and bitter experience of what an arbitrary government could do to them In creating a central government they were therefore more concerned with keeping it under control than with giving it the means to do its job." -Edmund S.

Choose 1 answer: A The grievances of Daniel Shays and other Revolutionary War veterans due to farm foreclosures B The terms of the Treaty of Paris, which committed US debtors to

Answer 1

The grievances of Daniel Shays and other Revolutionary War veterans due to farm foreclosures highlight the concerns of Americans regarding an arbitrary government that could impose heavy taxes and foreclose on farms. This supports the author's conclusion that Americans were more concerned with keeping the central government under control than giving it the means to do its job.
