Later in the federalist, no. 84, hamilton says, “here, in strictness, the people surrender nothing, and as they retain everything, they have no need of particular reservations.” hamilton believed that the new constitution would a) be very expensive to implement because of its strict structure. b) protect all rights for the citizens and made a bill of rights useless. c) be controversial, but would eventually to unite the country as one nation. d) eventually need a bill of rights, but it was too important to get the document ratified.

Correct answer is B.

This is because of Hamilton's federalists views. As a federalists, one who believed in a strong federal (central government), Hamilton was in favor of getting rid of the old constitution (the Articles of Confederation) and implementing a new one. Based on the excerpt, you can see that Hamilton is confident that the new constitution developed will protect individuals, as it states that the "people surrender nothing" and "retain everything." In these phrases he is referring to the fact that the federal government will not take away of the individual liberties promised to American citizens.
