Flaws of the Articles of Confederation: Denied a centralized national government; it denied it the power to tax or to regulate trade, not only between the United States and other nations, but also between the states. The Articles of Confederation were meant to put States' Rights over the rights of the National Government


The greatest flaw of the Articles of Confederation was that all the power belonged to the states. For example: the U.S. federal government had debts to repay but had no means of enforcing or raising taxes in the states. Furthermore the articles made it nearly impossible to amend the Articles themselves so no problems no matter how glaring could be fixed.
