Major arguments on the Anti-federalists and Federalists on the ratification of the constitution:

Anti-federalists:

  • They <u>opposed </u>the development of a strong federal government, preferring the power to say in hands of the <u>state and local governments.</u>
  • Most of the people who supported this ideal lived in <u>rural areas</u>.
  • They <u>opposed the Constitution</u> until the Bill of rights was added.
  • Their <u>representatives </u>were: Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, Patrick Henry and Samuel Adams.
  • They wished for <u>local power </u>(famers and small rural communities) to regulate the economy.
  • They thought that each state should <u>manage their own revenue</u> and spend their money as they thought best.

Federalists

  • Wanted a powerful <u>national government.</u>
  • Most of the people who supported this ideal lived in <u>urban areas.</u>
  • They <u>proposed and supported the Constitution.</u>
  • Their <u>representatives</u> were: Alexander Hamilton, George Washington, John Jay and John Adams.
  • They wanted the economy to be dominated by the interests of big business and wanted the help of the <u>government to administer the economy. </u>
  • They were in favor of a <u>central bank and central financial policies</u>, because they thought that the differences in monetary policies led to economic issues.

The compromises made on:

  • Human rights: The Bill of rights (first 10 amendments of the constitution) are about personal, individual rights and freedom. These were included mostly to satisfy Anti-federalists.
  • Representation in congress: Equal representation in the senate and proportional representation in the House of Representatives was established.
  • Slavery: The 13th amendment was made about slavery. This amendment prohibited slavery and any forced servitude (except as a penalty of a crime).

Why did democrats oppose federal support for internal improvements, the bus, and higher tariffs?
Alchen [17]
Increased federal control--all of these expanded the economic power of the federal government.

Democrats believed in a stronger state government and a reduced federal government. Having economic control opened the door for the federal government to become a monarchy. Tariffs also hurt the South and the farmer which the Democrats tended to represent.
