Answer:
The correct answer is <u>B</u>: to strengthen the economy of each region while ensuring that the federal government would remain strong.

The plan had three mutually reinforced parts, based on a new national bank, taxing foreign goods and creating a subsidized infrastructure of new roads and canals. Therefore, this system tried to strengthen the American economy by protecting manufacturing with a protective tariff, the Second Bank of the United States provided a strong currency and by giving a bigger role to the federal government (e.g. with federally funded internal improvements as roads and canals).
It might lower the population drastically.
