Hamilton largely got his way......to the detriment of us all. He wanted centralized power, a crony capitalist system in which government would be in bed with business giving them handouts and special favors rather then just regulating the market, and he favored an executive with almost royal powers.
We would have been far better off had we gone in a more Jeffersonian direction with decentralized power, a stricter interpretation of the General Welfare clause and strict limits on the government’s ability to borrow money.
Indeed, a Jeffersonian America likely would never have even conceived a traitorous FBI, no public funding of abortions, and no wars in far off lands going on for 20 years with nothing to show for it.
