Did you even read your social contract Wiki page?
First, there’s no mention of the American founders. Second…this is how it starts.
Yes, I did read it. I think you missed this part: “John Locke’s writings on the Social Contract were particularly influential among the American Founding Fathers.”
THEORIES…that require people to give up rights. Ben Franklin warned against exactly that. You’re on crack if you think the founders intended anything of the sort. They knew that Liberty was the solution.
Uhm, that’s part of liberty, read up on it You always give up rights when government is involved. I now see your true libertarian colors showing. It’s funny how you think you don’t need government! It’s helped you much more then you probably consciously know.
How do you like the 10th amendment now Kilmer? Take it from a founder, not some modern interpreter.
The 10th Amendment is just fine, I don’t see your point!
There are many more, but I have to get to work.
-Social contract
-Implied powers (of Congress)
and plenty of other BS has been invented and inserted into our educational system by people who disagree with the founders views of absolute liberty. That’s why they brainwash people like you and I with it.
There is no absolute liberty, it’s either positive or negative. It all sounds great as a THEORY as you pointed out, but we have actual PEOPLE running our government and things aren’t as you read in text books or online. Everybody is full of their own convictions. !
