The difference is that the founding fathers were fighting for the rights of everyone, where as some of the politicians are fighting for their rights while taking away the rights of the people.
@@ThomasSowellTV How stupid is that comment and yours when the ancestors of Thomas Sowell were OWNED by the Founding Fathers. Their definition of "everyone" was not at all like yours. LOL
No the difference is they actually had to gain the publics trust with real work and being front of the line now they would rather cheat to gain money and watch the war
You couldn't possibly be more wrong, even if you had finished high school. Nearly all of the politicians of that time were self-dealing. It wasn't considered a crime or morally wrong either. Ben Franklin was actually named a Stamp Tax collector before he saw the fate of some of those who were in other cities and switched sides.
@ji8044 That's a narrow minded argument, several Founding Fathers worked to defeat slavery and there were those who didn't own slaves. If this country is so intolerable to you, our borders are wide open. You can leave whenever you like.
I once saw a documentary where a British historian said the founding of the US was the greatest confluence of geniuses at the same time and place in world history up to that point.
Also the least power hungry band of revolutionaries ever in history. George Washington went home after winning the Revolutionary War; he voluntarily limited himself to two terms as President.
I think they'd be more miffed with the people who voted for them. The government they gave us was designed to mitigate the power of just the sort of politicians we have today because they knew this could happen. They prepared for this. The voters are the ones who've dropped the ball over the years.
The difference is one was Building for better life for everyone , versus destroying what was once great for all to control for personal wealth and power !
There is truth to that, If that is true, then what is mechanism by which they are corrupted? Obviously, the morally bankrupt "education" system is present in the reason. Media depictions of historical figures plays into it as well. But the bottom line answer is likely as simple as this: the two parties are run by the most egregious of bad faith actors and through the institution of the party, they run a system in which no honest person can succeed. The two parties do not represent Americans, they represent a giant industrial concern that preys upon Americans at the ballot box.
Every American citizen should read, with complete comprehension, our Declaration of Independence at least twice a year. This is where you can understand the reasons for the formation of a new form of government. The final sentence emphasizes the total dedication of the men we call our founding fathers.
The average citizen doesn't pay attention after election day. It's very disheartening when a guy can rattle off useless stats about his favorite football team or player but ask that same person when was the last time he attended a local government meeting or a school board meeting and you'll hear crickets. People are burying their heads in the sand and not participating in their civic duties.
Most of our founding fathers believed in God and understood the purpose of life requires the exercise of agency which in turn requires freedom from tyranny.
Belief in God has no logical connection to freedom from tyranny. If you believe that every atheist is actually a Nihilistic cretin then sure .. but they are 2 distinctly different beliefs. Look em up.
They were, for the most part,members of the Masonic Orders. This is where their strong belief on individual freedom cane from. Today's " tin foil hat" theories about the Masins being " the Illuminati" is just the old top down ruling system rumor mills attempt to discredit them.
@@nnotny In this simulation we all find ourselves in, there are Non-Player Characters who only do and think as they were programmed to, and Player Characters who can actually use logic and reason.

@@secondchance6603 These people who think, based on nothing provable, that we live in some sort of simulation, don't seem to get the implication that there must be a simulator, and a reality that this simulation is based on. We can't have that! It's all random! Imagine basing your "theology" on computer games.
The founding fathers were white Englishmen The current politicians are Jews Latinos Indians and every other third world group. Who could have guessed that replacing the people who build the British empire with people who couldn’t invent the wheel would have such consequences.
Power *is* dangerous. This is why the Founders had the wisdom to give us three coequal branches of government with separate powers among them. It has served and protected us well!
The founders were trying to make a government better than any that had existed in history, one that could not legitimately discriminate, oppress, or subjugate its citizens. And to a great extent they succeeded ..... until the railroads made travel so easy and so fast that politics could become a career. Not that I have anything against railroads. The fault is, rather, in those individuals who do not serve only a term or two and then go home to live under the laws they have made; instead, they abuse their position and never want to leave.
The Founding fathers were educated in Western Civilisation, they mostly were educated in Ancient Greek and Latin. They were hard working and industrious. That is the difference.
@@chris10hi False and idiotic, the British government actually bought British slaves from their owners over a ten year period. They didn't free anyone. Furthermore, only a handful of the Founding Fathers had a classic education. For instance Washington and Franklin definitely did not. Jefferson and Adams did in a rather loose way.
One key difference is that the Founding Fathers were far younger than the fossils we have in DC today. Today, being a politician is a career. Back then, that was not the case. We need to return to short-term politicians via term limits. DOGE is another opportunity to make some sorely needed corrections to this corrupt system.
Are you saying there hasn’t ALWAYS been well educated people in high levels of government…it’s a new thing? I do get the sentiment these days. Many feel a bunch of plumbers, bricklayers, landscape people would do a better job managing federal agencies because they’re working class and went to the school of hard knocks.
The difference is that the Founding Fathers didn’t think we could have a republic if there was a great difference in wealth. The Founders only allowed business corporations to be sanctioned, in order to build a large project. When the project was over so was the corporation. In a free market there are no corporations because the government doesn’t charter corporations in a free market.
Indentured Servitude From 1607 Through 1922 is the book that says all you need to know about the character of the forefathers especially if you are a White Southerner
The founding fathers did not go into politics to get rich, since they were already rich. They were mostly unwilling politicians rather than people who see politics as a lifetime career.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL George Washington received his first political appointment in 1749, and his last when he was elected president for the second time in 1793.
Our founding fathers all did things BEFORE they became Politian's, unlike many of the career politicians today, who have not. That's why Trump is so loved, he made his wealth BEFORE entering Politics.
I was thinking some other fine details but UA-cam would auto delete so ill leave it at "between the founding stock, many nowadays aren't...rhymes with A glow Saxonophone.
Just remember that we the people voted to give the government god like power and even the Donald still wants to expand things that arent functioning properly, i.e. the military
I simply can’t ride with Professor Sowell. He’s definitely one of safe guys I would pare with Clarence Thomas. They are definitely the same kind of safe guys.
So safe that the leftist media and leftist academia have almost completely ignored him for decades. Something he has to say that they don't want us to hear.
I have discovered in my life here for 3/4 of a century,That you become what you Think about of days ! Thoughts are things ! Anyway it is a fact: you better know God for yourself ! If you Don’t receive Jesus Christ as your lord master and Savior if you don’t Satan is going to get you:Come Holy Spirit: Amen:So Be It:❤❤❤
Still harping on the slavery of the past while they have you blinded by the slavery of today. Many live paycheck to paycheck. Taxes, regulations, inflation, proxy wars, crisis politics are tools of the modern day slave masters to separate you from your money, property and freedom. The only difference between now and then is you get to choose the job that pays the slave masters. Educate yourself.
That is not true, most were against it. Learn American History. Not the garbage written by American apologists who intend to turn young people against their country.

Good times produce weak people. Most people live in cities now and are disconnected from real hardship.
@doublecheckityt think about the song "A Country Boy Can Survive"
And today stuffing their corrupt pockets with our tax dollars.
The founding fathers created a system of government that they wanted to live under, not to rule over.
The difference is the founding fathers were serving the U.S. citizens……….politicians today are self - serving.

Americans have forgotten who we're supposed to be. This is supposed to be the land of the free, not the land of free stuff.
Thanks boy that’s a good one!
Amen.
The "land of the free" when the big majority of the signers of the Declaration were slaveholders?
What an idiot!
