Futz the founders. They lived in the 18th century. Things change.

Things do change. Change can be good and bad...

200 years ago America was young innocent and 100% opportunity.


Don't get me wrong I like a lot of what we have become but I also think we have effed a lot up along the way.

I (as well as many of you) are directly decendents of people and families that fought hard to immigrate here for the opportunity that existed. Yes, opportunity still exists here, but not on the same scale as 200 years ago.

First generation Americans are the pinnacle of opportunists! We crave imbalance and opportunity.

The founding fathers were as corrupt as the king of England. Its all about the power. The rest are just slogans. The founding fathers had slaves. I mean how enlightened was that?

Source?


If the Founders were corrupt then they would have established an oligarchy ... but they didn't ergo .. they stuck to their principles even after victory was theirs

They were men of their time.

You can't be faithful to a woman, how enlightened is that?

Owning slaves and dating different women have nothing in common. As a connoisseur of analogies that one is like matching accordion music to a sinus cavity.
