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

I think the if our younger selves from say the year 2000 were suddenly sent forward in time, they would be shocked at politicians and politics today.

We are living in a world gone insane

I think the Founders would have run out of rope and trees a long time ago.

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.
