Let’s take it further. Why is history mostly about politics and warfare? As tho natural history is less important…

And July 4th is not the nation’s birthday. It’s simply the day the colonists said fuck you to England.

The power to determine what laws are or are not Constitutional, that the Supreme Court wields, is also not in the Constitution.

It comes from a precedent set by John Marshall.

We could show them what originalism really means by revoking that power and replacing it with the will of the people.

I’ll back you up on this. Both points.

The thing most people forget about capitalism is that Adam Smith’s invisible hand, eg the consumers, was meant to bend companies towards their will. Smith wrote a whole book on how important morality is too.

As soon as the land of any country has all become private property, the landlords, like all other men, love to reap where they never sowed, and demand a rent even for its natural produce.

No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part of the members are poor and miserable.

The disposition to admire, and almost to worship, the rich and the powerful, and to despise, or, at least, to neglect persons of poor and mean condition is the great and most universal cause of the corruption of our moral sentiments.

His ideas got wildly corrupted after WW2 by those looking to resist the potential for new hitlers, and they took it WAY too far… It was never meant to become anarchy for corporations, but if you ask a typical boomer, raised in the overpropagandized post WW2 era, that’s what it has become.

Younger folks dont have to continue that boomer shit. We can go back to the original ideas of a decentralized economic system where consumers bend corporations to their will

It’s worth looking up who the Jacobins were, btw…

They cut the heads off the French leaders during the revolution and that lead directly to Napoleon’s rise, and he was a lot worse than what we got with Trump.
