Answer:
2) It represents an Anti-Federalist viewpoint on the relative power of the central government.
Explanation:
As we know the Federalists spread a series of pamphlets called “The Federalist” as a way to spread the ideas of Federalism and convince the states that did not agree with the ideas of federalism to ratify the Constitution.
Following the same idea, the Anti-Federalists - the ones that did not agree with the federalist system - started to write and spread pamphlets as well.
William Grayson wrote one of them and this is an excerpt from the Anti-Federalist n.2. The Anti-Federalists opposed the idea of a strong central government because they believed that the Constitution did not create a system that would prevent this Central Government from becoming a tyranny such as the one the colonies ran away from. This is way Grayson argues that the Constitution would not meliorate the system that was already working by the Articles of Confederation.
The option that is a true statement about this quote is that it represents an Anti-Federalist viewpoint on the relative power of the central government.
- According to the Anti-Federalists, a strong central government will not be able to reflect the need of the people. They also believed that they would bring about tyranny.
- They feared that the wealthy people will dominate a strong central government. They wanted a central government that was weak and where everyone had equal opportunities.
- They encouraged democracy and believed that too much power will be given to the strong central government and they didn't want this to occur.
In conclusion, the correct option is 2.
