Porshia · Answer

Because they didn't want any form of tyranny to exist in their government. If government officials got away with horrible crimes then, they could basically do whatever they want.

Porshia · Answer

The framers chose limited government to prevent tyranny by ensuring that government powers are restricted and citizens' rights are protected. This was crucial in the aftermath of the American Revolution, where they sought to maintain freedom and prevent oppression. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights embody this principle by stipulating checks and balances and safeguarding individual liberties.
