Many Amercians think that the U.S. goverment was created with the idea that a firm hand of force will keep people in line. But Amercias founding fathers almost hated the idea of being told what to do. However the founding fathers saw the effects of a non-existant goverment and did not like the idea of 0% unification. So on one side is total anarchy (which is not as bad as some people think...the actual word means 'ruled by no one') And on the other hand there would be a complete monarachy (which is total rule by a king or queen). If that is the case the early goverment was set up to be about a 97% anarachy and an 3% monarchy. Well that proved to be a goverment that was to small and it could not help the people. (https://www.history.com/topics/early-us/articles-of-confederation) That weak form of goverment only lasted for about 10-12 years before it was scrapped. Then The Constitution that many people know about was drafted (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_of_the_United_States). The idea was to have about a 94% anarchy and a 6% monarchy. (Think of the goverment like a big crazy giant) sure the giant can smash your house, but the giant will also keep dangerous animals away. Thoes animals could rip us to shreds. So Amercias founding fathers decided that it was benificial to keep the giant, however they tied the giant up (with the constitution) then the giant only had one arm free to shoe the wild beasts away. Over time some people started to get a little to friendly with the giant, and through protest and deceptive words they thought that the giant can be a little more untied. Other people see what has been done as a grave mistake (these people are know as constitutionalists) because they want Amercia to restore the constitution and tie the giant back up. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tea_Party_movement) The name Tea Party has been taken from the Boston Tea party (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_Tea_Party) The origional tea party happened because the king of england told us that we were going to pay for Englands wars and there was nothing that we could do about it. So the Amercians 'gently' showed the king how badly we needed his precious goods. (https://steemit.com/thanksgiving/@captaintj/anti-socialist-communism-thanksgiving) Money is not bad, the love of money is bad. Finances are a part of life, so goverment and finances are closely related (as a side note the only reason that an anarchy is able to work is because for generations many people had the 'laws of GOD' written on their hearts. (Think about it as long as both of us GOD has told us not to steal...then we do not need a goverment to tell us how to behave, but if you think that its ok to take some things that do not belong to you then we proably will not get along) so the idea of any goverment is a necciary evil, but the reasons why goverments 'need' to govern more oppressivly is because humans do not want to follow the rules of GOD! ("That government is best which governs least" is a motto with which Henry David Thoreau opens his pamphlet, Civil Disobedience. It has been attributed to Thomas Jefferson, but no one has ever found it in any of Jefferson's writings.) I am not a total pacivist, but I am a GOD fearing man that Loves peace, however I have turned over a statement in my mind for a number of years now....“That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” (https://www.ushistory.org/declaration/document/)
