Which of the following was a problem under the Articles of Confederation?Group of answer choicesThe national government was too strong compared to the states. Amendments were too easy to ratify. Congress lacked the authority to regulate commerce. Congress imposed excessive taxes.

Congress lacked the authority to regulate commerce.

Explanation:

The federal government under the Articles of Confederation was extremely weak: it did not only lack the authority to regulate commerce, it could not raise taxes or keep an standing army either.

This weakness made the government very ineffective at a time when Britain was still a threat. This is why the founding fathers decided to draft a new constitution, the current U.S. Constitution, in order to give the federal government more powers, and make it more effective.
