Testy aren't we. That aside, your argument fell flat on its face for lack of evidence. And what pray tell does the political climate before the American Revolution have ANY bearing on the motives of the Founders to create a new nation, huh???

On second thought, save yourself more countless hours of mud wrestling and forget about it. All I'll get from you are some veiled references to "That's just the way things were back then, trust me". I don' think so. You made the assertion that our Founders were dirtbags and you don't have a shred of material to back it up. Admit it.

Hardly. Because you lack the will to explore the history beyond the mere platitudes doesn't equate to a "lack of evidence" for my argument. You're basically doing the online equivalent of shutting your eyes in order to pretend something doesn't exist.

That you could even formulate a question like this may be evidence you lack the intellectual skills to handle the problem in the first place.

Hardly. I said there was more in play than sheer altruism. Try reading a book. What some suggestions?
