President Jefferson believed in limiting the powers of the federal government and in order to do so he abolished all internal taxes instead, he was able to run the government solely on the money generated by means of the trade tariff revenue. Generating revenue by means of taxes was considered a great governmental power, something that had spurred the American revolution, and President Jefferson sought to limit that power. These policies also allowed President Jefferson to reduce the overall government spending and in turn debt of the United States, while also eliminating much of the tax burden placed on its inhabitants.
