I haven't seen that book but the Franklin speech I wanted to quote was the one he made on the second of June 1787 that was in opposition to executive salaries. I have it in my “Anti-Federalist Papers and the Constitutional Convention Debates”. A great book that when paired with “The Federalist Papers” gives you great insight into what the founders were thinking and how we have gotten to where we are today.

Unfortunately many of the evils that we overthrew back then have been reimposed on us by our own elected while we neglected to over see them because trusted our press to inform us. When they claimed to be unbiased we trusted them, all the while they were getting into bed with those elected and they have formed a partnership whose goal, it appears, is to enslave us all through force of laws designed to take away our natural rights as spelled out in the supposedly unalterable amendments.
