I wonder what the founders would think of politics today. I think they would be shocked.

The would be amazed at the technological progress, the incredible prosperity, the advances in science.

They would understand the gathering of power in the central government. They warned against it.

Overall, they would be shocked at the open licentiousness of society.

They would pat themselves on the back for having succeeded beyond anything they could have imagined.
