Why did Alexander Hamilton support high tariffs?

1 answer:

5 0

After the Revolution, the new United States faced a competitive disadvantage in that the status of industry nationally was relatively weak as compared to European industrial powers.

As a result, Alexander Hamilton wanted high tariffs as a painful jump start of an industrial boom in the United States. The thinking was that if tariffs were high, US citizens would respond by making a similar product in the US.
