What plan proposed scrapping the Articles of Confederation and creating a new national government with the power to make laws binding upon the states and rise money through taxes?

Well... The thing was, scrapping the Articles of Confederation wasn't planned, from what I understand. When what later would be called the Constitutional Convention was called up in Philidelphia (Our capitol, before D.C had been planned and built) the original delegates simply planned to rewrite the Articles, as I understand. However, upon careful investigation, they reached a consensus that the Articles were simply too flawed to be simply rewritten, so they decided to scrap the Articles, and began the drafting of what is now the United States Constitution. Short answer, the Constitution.
