The states had all the power. The Congress could not even make the states and citizens pay taxes because suddenly all the power had shifted to the states, although in the beginning, the states had no more power than what they did in the beginning. I hope this helps :)

They had just fought a king and were afraid on centralized power, so they wanted a government that didn't do much. It didn't work because there wasn't any means to collect taxes, print money, fix roads, pay and keep a military, and handle commerce between states.
