Hamilton’s Economic Plan Designed to favor the rich who would support the federal government fiscally and politically First goal was to improve national credit and restore public confidence He did this by having the federal government agree to pay off the entire federal debt ($54 million) and the state debts ($21.5 million). Convinced Virginia, who had paid its debts, by giving it the new federal district.

Hamilton’s Economic Plan Hamilton believed that a large “national debt” would bind citizens more closely to the federal government Planned to use a tariff, a tax on imported goods, and an excise tax, a tax on goods produced at home, to pay off the national debt. Excise tax specifically targeted whiskey.

Bank of the United States Proposed by Hamilton as a way to stabilize a national currency and make surplus federal funds available to the economy. Jefferson, a “strict constructionist”, argued against the bank because the chartering banks was a reserved power (belonged to the states) Hamilton, a “loose constructionist”, argued for the bank based on the Elastic Clause Hamilton wins.
