Which Constitution allowed the General Assembly to pass taxes without showing where the money was spent?

1802
1851
Both
Neither

The correct answer is: 1802

The 1802 Constitution allowed the General Assembly to pass taxes without showing where the money was spent. This was in contrast to the 1851 Constitution, which required that the General Assembly show how the tax money would be used. Option B is incorrect because the 1851 Constitution actually imposed this requirement, rather than allowing it. Option C is incorrect because only the 1802 Constitution allowed for taxes to be passed without a showing of how the money would be spent. Option D is incorrect because both constitutions had differing guidelines for taxes, making it incorrect to say that neither allowed for this.
