D)The national government was unable to provide veterans with back pay.

The whole reason of the Shay's Rebellion was because the National government did not have sufficient funding to pay the troops. They also could not levy taxes, which left them to get funds from the state governments.

B)The executive branch under the Articles of Confederation could not enforce legislation because there was no legislature.

The executive branch had no way to enforce any of the laws passed by Congress, as there was no standing army, and the army, when needed, had to be created through a draft & volunteers.

A) The national government was not allowed to have a standing army.

It was not until 8 years later that the government was allowed to have a large standing army. Even then, the army was limited, and only allowed to be used for defensive purposes.

the vast majority of ballots have been counted nearly two weeks after one of the biggest political upsets in modern u.s. history catapulted donald trump to the presidency.

estimates show more than 58 percent of eligible voters went to the polls during the 2016 election, nearly breaking even with the turnout rate set during the last presidential election in 2012, even as the final tallies in states like california continue to be calculated, according to statistics collected by the u.s. elections project.

but among those figures were stark contrasts in key states that swing the election to trump — in ohio, wisconsin, iowa, michigan and elsewhere — indicating the president-elect’s leap from long-shot candidate to the most powerful political position in the world may have happened in part because of apathy toward hillary clinton’s candidacy, especially among the democratic base, several political scientists and organizations monitoring voter turnout told the pbs newshour.

while clinton is leading the popular vote by more than 1.5 million over trump as of sunday, she trails president obama’s 2012 totals by more than 2 million ballots — a chasm that may have cost her the election, said david becker, co-founder of the center for election and innovation and research.

“several million voters didn’t come out to vote,” becker said. “which is telling me that this idea of the trump wave, a huge number of voters shifting over to trump, is certainly not the story.”
