America Against Federalism
The United States of America Should Be Against Federalism
Ratification of the Constitution is bad for America. The third principle of the Declaration of Independence is, “Governments are created in order to protect the rights of the people they govern.” Federalists ideas do not protect people. By supporting the federalism ideas the people of America will be governed by an overly powerful government that will not protect the rights of the average citizen.
One example of this is the new Constitution will give too much power to to a small group of people. This small group of people can make too many important decisions in the government. Federalism not represent the average citizen. For example, the Constitution will give the power to allow
the government to lay heavy taxes like the British government did. The federalism ideas will allow the government to act like the British government did which was unsuccessful. The Constitution will allow many of the things that people disagree with. By forming into one big republic government not all people will be happy with the government.
Also the Constitution will give power to an executive leader which the Articles of Confederation was not allowed. Why would the people want a one leader with power? This could lead to tyranny and very unfair ruling to the average citizen. This leader could make decisions like the king of England did making many people angry at the government. The main leader could make this great country become into something that the people did not want. When the people didn’t like the British government a war started. Why would the citizens of this country want to support a government that doesn’t give everyone representation that they deserve.
