Alexander Hamilton's main argument that the present system of government under the Articles of Confederation was too weak revolved around the fact that this government could not tax the individual states--meaning that the US couldn't repay it war debt, which would have greatly hurt its credit rating.
President John Adams created the United States Department of the Navy "<span>D)to expand the United States' control over territorial waters". The US needed ships to protect US shipping overseas and to protect its coastline. </span>
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. The tactic that Charles Townshend use to increase British control of the American colonies would be that created new taxes on the American colonists to raise revenue. Hope this answers the question.
<span>Assuming that this is referring to the same list of options that was posted before with this question, <span>the correct response would be "it operates according to the rules of a direct democracy" since in the US there is a system of representative democracy. </span></span><span />
