Our Founders were Anarchists.

[HVACTech]

why else would they have chosen a "system of checks and balances" ? in a Republic?
"checks and balances" on what?

easy. on those who seek to rule them.

I submit, that they were hard core Anarchists.. who understood that ignorance becomes dangerous in large groups of people.
this explains why they shunned pure Democracy as well as pure Anarchy. (one and the same in actuality)

what they sought to control. was the accumulation of power.which is inherent in any form of social organization. (Government.)

can we agree that Our Founders were hard Core Anarchists?

They were not even libertarian . If so there would have been no whiskey rebellion . What they were was a bunch of guys who wanted a few services but did not want to pay for them so they took over and then charged people more for the same . So , really , maybe not that overly bright .

 

[Mikezelot]

They were so anarchist they formed a government!

sir, "they" did NOT form a Government.
what they formed... was a "Federation".
mebbe thou art needs to look this word up?

 

[oyarde]

Oh , a Federation , well thats different . I 'll just choose then to not participate .

 

[HVACTech]

And taxed people at a higher rate than the previous government .

is a "federation" a form of Government sir?

or..

is it more like a league or a common union... created and developed... for a specific purpose?

 

[HVACTech]

Oh , a Federation , well thats different . I 'll just choose then to not participate .

was my taxonomy too hard on you sir?

 

[otherone]

Maybe [MENTION=6186]Danke[/MENTION] would be a patriot and pay my whiskey , weed and machinegun taxes to these great anarchist federation guys so they do not try and stick me with a bayonet .

I saw that coming so I opted out of participation to the special rainbow federation . This is confusing . I had to look taxonomy up and it said nomenclature and classification of organisms . I went to a white govt school after I got thrown out of the Lutheran school and they were a little behind I guess .

"taxonomy" is apt, considering the founders' view of the various species of humans.

Representatives and armies and taxes and judicial powers and so on is not "government"?

 

[HVACTech]

Representatives and armies and taxes and judicial powers and so on is not "government"?

the word "Federation" is very specific. as it only applies to those who chose to join such a union. or League.
what we have are 3 separate and distinct documents. produced many years apart.
as you well know.
the "anti-federalists" were NOT against the declaration of independence or the bill of rights.
what they were in fact against... was the Constitution.

and upon this fact, I will grant you no quarter.

I consider Abraham Lincoln to be our true founding father.

He basically invented the phrase Make America Great Again

He did admirable duty in The Blackhawk War as a militiaman on grave duty burying other dead Militiamen as a captain and then a private . He was rewarded by the govt with a land grant . Personally I wish Blackhawk had taken all of Illinois back and prevented a commie state in the midwest but you cannot have everything . I wish Obummer and Trump had been privates in the militia on grave detail .
