Andrew Jackson fundamentally believed that the 2nd Bank of the United States was unconstitutional because it maintained monopoly power over the United States. He also believed that the Bank violated the idea that the role of a government that should stand for honesty, equality, and fairness. Jackson also argued that the bank's abuses of power made it unfit to store the nations public deposits. With help from his cabinet members and supporters in Congress, Jackson successfully removed federal government funds from the bank in 1833.
