Question

I 6. Which of the following policies was favored by the Federalist Party? A. Focus on growing the agricultural economy B. Establishment of national (federal) banks C. Pro-French sentiment D. Strong state governments​

Answer 1

The federalist favored a national bank. The other options were favored by the anti federalist who wanted the states to have more power and feared that having a national bank would give the central government too much power. Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton argued very much on this topic, Hamilton advocating for a national bank and Jefferson being against.
