It was Hamilton who pushed the Congress to promote manufacturing in the United States. Because he believed that if the United States starts manufacturing, the US would be independent for supplying military supplies. And this independence will give equality to the global market. At first the congress didn’t shows enthusiasm in Hamilton’s report but later on they adopted the said report. Both sides agreed that manufacturing independently would give growth to the United States economy in the near future.
