Christina asked: While writing the Constitution, did the Founding Fathers want to limit the actions of the government or to protect people's basic rights?
I think the Founding Fathers were looking to do both. While protecting people's basic rights was certainly a main goal, the Founding Fathers were probably trying to make sure the government would not be too powerful. They probably tried to find a balance between giving government power and giving people rights.
Nataley asked: Some people say there shouldn't be a constitution, but wouldn't that create confusion?
I think it definitely would cause confusion. Even though there may be certain parts of the Constitution people do not agree with, the Constitution definitely sets boundaries that we need in order for our country to function well.
