Answer 1

B. The states had been taxing each other to pay off their debts from the Revolution and make profits to better their state. With the creation of the Constitution, the states would consolidate their debts and everyone would help pay it off. The Southern States didn't like this idea because they had little debt from the war and some had already paid it off.
