Hamilton was also a proponent of central banks. Not a good idea.

On the contrary Central banking is necessary for a modern economy. If you prefer to live on the island of Yap go right ahead but don't drag the rest of us down with you.

Hamilton's genius assured the success of the United States by establishing the Rule of Law as paramount and laying the basis for industrial capitalism. Fortunately his ideas triumphed over the retrogressive fantasies/delusions of Jefferson.

Hamilton's life-long devotion to the Union provoked a two centuries long attempt to blacken his name and reputation but those who know a little history realize that he was second only to Washington in importance to our founding. He was second to none in theoretic understanding of political economy and the Constitution or love of country for which he gave his life.
