Which viewpoint did federalists support during the debates over the ratification of the constitution?
a. the federal government should be given powers of taxation.
b. state governments should be stronger than the federal government.
c. a bill of rights should be added to the constitution.
d. delegates should scrap the constitution and start over with a new document for the country.

The correct answer is A) The federal government should be given powers of taxation.

The Federalists were in favor of a strong federal government after seeing how a weak federal government resulted in failure in American society. When the Articles of Confederation were in place, America's federal government barely had any powers. This lack of power was shown during Shay's Rebellion, in which the US federal government did not have the power to raise an army to put down a rebellion by Massachusetts citizens.

This is why the Federalists favored a strong federal government with the right to tax and raise an army. The ability to tax would allow the federal government to pay off debts from the Revolutionary War.
