Proposed in 1791, Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton wrote his Report on Manufactures with the aim of establishing economic maneuvers designed to, in the long run, improve American credit by encouraging the expansion of American industries and taxation. Hamilton's initiatives were ultimately inspired by his federalist program supported by the Washington administration.

To further promote the American market, he advocated “bans on competing items” (Hamilton, 16). He later adds that by taxing foreign products more than American products of the same quality, people should be more inclined to buy the product made in the United States. So while the tax exists to raise revenue to reduce the national debt, it will also encourage the purchase of domestically manufactured goods. Hamilton introduced the idea of ​​bonuses, and later, the use of a specific type of bonus for those who have “superiority…or skill” in a trade (Hamilton, 17).

Just as in modern America not all items are taxed, Hamilton takes the time to discuss exceptions to clarify which products will not be taxed. In its eighth point, it is about once again encouraging home manufacturing and, of course, the use of machines. The last points
