Federalists
it didn't provide a strong central government. the states acted completely independent of each other. acting for their best interest and not that of the states as a whole.
Shays' Rebellion was an example of a failure. The farmers were in revolt, but the state was not strong enough to get it under control. Under the articles, the federal government did not have the authority to step in and help the state. The Constitution came about, in part, to give the states a stronger federal backing.
they believed everyone were failures at life
Articles/ConstitutionDrafted during the years 1776 and 1777, while the colonists were still fighting for independence, the Articles of Confederation created a weak national government with most of the governmental powers retained by the states. The Articles provided no separation of branches. There was no president or any other independent executive, nor was there a federal judicial branch. Congress, the legislature, was the only branch of government. Members elected to congress did not vote as individuals, but as states. While congress did have some powers, it could not enforce its laws on the states or the people. States were permitted to coin their own money. There was no regulation of commerce between the states and states could even enter into treaties with foreign nations and declare war, with the consent of Congress. Congress could not tax the states or the people, it could only request funds to run the government.
Bank failures and credit problems meant spiraling unemployment, home losses, and business failures.

Regarding authority, yes. A U.S. State Government (such as the State of Texas) administers the State in which is located. By contrast, the Federal Government of the United States of America administers the whole country.
