This is going to be limited government. We did not want to have a government with too much power, which is why we limited it via restrictions! =)
The correct answer is B) limited government.
The restrictions placed on the federal government shown in this quote best reflect the principle of limited government.
The Articles of Confederation was the first type of Constitution in the United States. Under the Articles of Confederation, the states remained sovereign and were the ones that could collect money through taxation. So the states were powerful. The central government was weak. So when the government -the Congress- needed money, it had to ask for it to the states.
