Quote of the day: Alexander Hamilton, 1791, on the importance of manufacturing
Posted by scapozzola on 05/23/2012
“Not only the wealth; but the independence and security of a Country, appear to be materially connected with the prosperity of manufactures. Every nation, with a view to those great objects, ought to endeavour to possess within itself all the essentials of national supply. These comprise the means of Subsistence habitation clothing and defence.”
--Alexander Hamilton’s “Report on Manufactures,” 1791.
