False. In a Confederation, more power belongs to the individual, or state, governments.
False. The Articles failed precisely because the system lacked a strong central government.
True. Under the Articles of Confederation the government had no power to collect taxes.
It would be false to state that the failure of the Articles of Confederation was all economic in origin. The most significant problem with the document was that it created a federal government that lacked power.

The false statement is that the central government provided troops to quell the rebellion. The Shay Rebellion took place in Massachusetts in 1786.
False, it was the only branch of government at the time which is the Executive branch today.
Under the Articles of Confederation the government did not have to power to levy taxes or form an army. The Articles of Confederation did not give the government enough power to function. They could only ask for the support of the states and hope they complied. In regard to taxes, nobody wanted to pay taxes, so the government had no money. Shay's Rebellion showed that the government also didn't have the power to protect the states should they need it. The Articles of Confederation were too weak because they were written with they tyranny of England fresh in the minds of the authors. They wanted to limit the power of government as much as possible and consequently created a government that couldn't function.
