According to Alexander Hamilton, why is manufacturing so much better than agriculture as a way for building the new national economy? Based on this source, what kind of nation does Hamilton envision?

Explanation:

Hamilton urged congress to promote manufacturing so that the United States could be "independent on foreign nations for military and other essential supplies." In addition to national independence, manufacturing would provide a path to equality in the global market.

Hamilton hoped to demonstrate the ability of the United States to be successful in manufacturing, and make proper use of its plentiful raw materials and its people's special aptitude for technological pursuits. It would be a microcosm of the industrial America of the future.

Hamilton wanted to make United State a strong and important nation. He wanted it to become the equal of the powerful nations of Europe.
