Articles of Confederation
Subject:
The United States as it existed under the Articles of Confederation was somewhat similar to Europe in the early days of the common market. It was basically divided into 13 nations by allowing each one it's own taxes, and tariffs. However, after a few short years the Articles were removed and replaced by the Constitution in attempt to address their weaknesses. Despite this failure the Articles of Confederation did obtain a few strengths, and were a stepping stone that led the Founding Fathers to create the Constitution.

Constitution of the United States of America
Objections to This Constitution of Government- George Mason, Virginia Ratification Convention, 1787
Subject:
1) There is no Declaration of Rights, and the laws of the general government being paramount to the laws and constitution of the several States, the Declarations of Rights in the separate States are no security. Nor are the people secured even in the enjoyment of the benefit of the common law.
2) In the House of Representatives there is not the substance but the shadow only of representation; which can never produce proper information in the legislature, or inspire confidence in the people; the laws will therefore be generally made by men little concerned in, and unacquainted with their effects and consequences.
