The Anti Federalist wanted a state bank due to the fact that they were against the National Bank. They believed that the state should have the power to the bank, and by having a National Bank, the National govermenet would be gaining to much power.

They wanted a strong Bank, because if they had this that would show some lyabilitie and which case a bigger population. I mean who wouldn't want the satifaction of knowing there money is safe and they are in a safe place for thereselfs and if the have a family there family as well. I mean if you think about it its only common sense grounds.

What was the main argument between federalists and anti-federalists?

Federalists wanted to urge the Constitution to be in action, but the Anti-Federalists didn't want the Constitution to be in commencement. They were against it.


Did anti federalists want the states or central government to have more power?

Federalists favored the passage of the US Constitution. Anti-Federalists opposed passage because, among other things, they thought the Constitution gave too much power to the federal government at the expense of the state governments. So clearly the Federalists wanted stronger national government and the Anti-Federalists wanted a weaker national government (and, in a zero-sum game, stronger state governments). The ensuing discussion led to the Bill of Rights.


Why didnt the federalist want the bill of rights?

Many federalists simply didn't see the need for a Bill of Rights. They felt the Constitution did a sufficient job in balancing power between the national government and the states. The Bill of Rights was added to appease the anti-federalists.


Did the federalists want a bicameral representation or unicameral representation?

They wanted a bicameral


How did the arguments of the Federalists and Anti-Federalists reflect their points of view regarding natural rights republicanism and constitutionalism?

The federalist are those who favored a stronger national government due to their fear caused by the weak Articles of Confederation. Therefore, they were more loose constructionist meaning that they took the words of the constitution loosely so that the federal government has more opportunity. The anti-federalist were strong believers in natural rights and the rights of the states to determine what they wanted because each state was extremely different. Anti-federalist still had a bad taste in their mouth from the American Revolution and feared that a strong federal government would turn into a monarchy. Therefore, the anti-federalist pushed for the Bill of Rights which helped the people keep some of their power. Americans had recently fought a war to secure their fundamental rights. The anti-federalist did not want a constitution that put those rights in jeopardy. They also were strict constructionist meaning that they interpreted the constitution word by word. The anti-federalist refused to sign the constitution until there was a promise of the bill of rights. Many Founding Fathers were influenced by Locke, his natural rights philosophy of inalienable rights: life, liberty, property regardless of wealth, social status or birth. If government failed to protect those rights the people had the rights to rebel and replace it.
