The correct answer is B) it would allow farm ownership to continue.

The addition of land was important to Thomas Jefferson‘s plan for the US economy in that it would allow farm ownership to continue.

The vision of Thomas Jefferson about the economy in the United States was so different than the vision of federalists such as Alexander Hamilton. Jefferson tried to limit the government's intervention in the economy of the nation. He reduced some unnecessary taxes. He did not support the idea of having a state bank or a US National Bank. And he made decisions to protect the American products over foreign products
