[QUOTE]Originally posted by Warped1701: [QB] First is quite correct about the Articles of Confederation, and how it proves that small government is bad. When you take early US history, you learn why they failed, and it was because it put [b]too little power[/b] in the hands of the government. Hell, they couldn't even raise an army to fight the Revolutionary War with! The only reason we won the war is because of the state's militias, which were only required to fight inside state borders, and foreign aid from France, Spain, and the Dutch. If America had followed the Articles of Confederation to the letter, there would most likely be a Union Jack flying over this nation. Small government doesn't work. The founding fathers knew it, scrapped the Articles of Confederation, and created the Constitution. As First said, would you prefer anarchy, or order? [/QB][/QUOTE]
