Since taxes could only be collected if the states willing gave money to the federal government, many state simply chose not to give sufficient moneys to the federal government. Without money to function, the federal government could not effectively coordinate policies within the United States.

Why were the Articles of Confederation was not a satisfactory federal government?
Alexander Hamilton wasn't unfounded in his opinions. He didn't think the federal government had any power whatsoever, and he was right. It didn't. The financial situation was a mess, he said, and the government didn't have any power to fix it (and Hamilton would be the one to fix it later). The government was laughably unstable and weak in other countries eyes and looked like it would surely collapse, and to Hamilton, who was obsessed with status and hierarchies (why he was obsessed is a story for another day), this was the worst of all its faults. Trade was another huge problem, and Hamilton believed the only way to get a government to be powerful was through trade. No trade, and the nation remains pitiful.

What is one of the primary reasons for the collapse of Socialist Communist economic systems particularly in the Soviet Union?
One of the primary reasons for the collapse of socialist communist economic systems, particularly in the Soviet Union, was the failure of centralized planning. This led to inefficiencies, inadequate allocation of resources, and the inability to respond to changing market conditions. Additionally, widespread corruption and a lack of innovation stifled economic growth and contributed to the system's eventual downfall.

In what ways did the framers try to improve on the Articles of Conferation?
There were many weaknesses in the Articles of Confederation. As the country continued to drift, with no real national leadership, the "Founding Fathers" realized a new form of government was needed to unite the new nation. The Articles gave congress no power to levy or collect taxes. Each state had to collect taxes from its citizens and turn that money over to the government under the Articles. Congress could do little if the states did not turn over taxes to the treasury. Congress had no power to regulate trade among the states or with foreign nations. This was leading to economic collapse of the national economy. A major weakness was the inability of Congress to force anyone to obey the laws it passed. The Articles lacked an executive and judicial branch independent from the legislature. The framers of the Constitution of the United States fixed these, and other weaknesses. A federal government was created with three separate branches, each having independent powers while sharing powers with the other two branches and with the state governments. MrV
