Question
2 why was hamilton critical of the articles of confederation? a it wasn’t strong enough to build a nation b it gave too much power to the national government c it allowed britain to make decisions for the country
Alexander Hamilton favored a strong central government to unify the states and address economic and structural weaknesses. The Articles of Confederation had an extremely weak national government, with most power held by individual states, which Hamilton believed made it impossible to effectively govern and build a cohesive, functional nation. Option B is incorrect because the Articles gave almost no power to the national government, and Option C is incorrect as the Articles were established after U.S. independence from Britain, so Britain had no decision-making power over the country under this system.
