The states argued that if the federal government took over the state debts, the people of states with few debts would have to pay taxes to service the larger debts of other states. Hamilton and his supporters made a bargain with the Virginians to pass the bill. The deal was to move the national capitol. The capitol had moved from New York to Philadelphia in 1790. But the Virginians wanted a new capital near them in the South. Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson agreed for the construction of a new capital on the banks of the Potomac River, which divided Virginia and Maryland. Here Washington himself would pick the spot. The government would move there by the beginning of the new century.
