My comment about Lincoln was censored. And all I said was that Lincoln ended limited government when he declared war on the South and the Constitution.
It's true but that's the problem with it.
Love DiLorenzo
Some people look to movie stars and sports players as heros. My heros are historians who expose the establishment historians who lie. Thomas DiLorenzo is a hero.
To say the Constitution has no fixed meaning is tantamount to saying we have no Constitution at all. What good is a constitution if the very people that it was written to limit can define their own powers. Don't remember who said it but a good point.
It's good to hear from a realist once in a while. They're so rare in America.
The Constitution is a "living Constitution" if and only if it's amended to reflect any new interpretations or needs, and if government actually follows it rather than just interprets it by "reading between the lines."
“There is nothing there”😂 the Supreme Court has taken powers it was not given. Acting as legislators who then use their judicial authority to enact the regulations or amendments to the Constitution. Tyranny that is allowed by all department heads, presidents, senators, congress member, lobbyist, major institutions like MIT, Harvard and Stanford.
A great talk. Very enjoyable and all true.
Alexander Hamilton was insane!
If he was, then he was crazy like a fox. ;)
He wasn't insane, he was one of the smartest among them. His ideas were more in the direction of oligarchy rather than lesaissez faire
He wanted a president for life, which doesn’t sound too healthy post 20th century.
Megalomaniacal and sociopathic IMHO- drove Burr to shoot him...
The best thing he ever did was lose to Burr in a duel.
Great video!!
if only the people had their true history! However, I'd settle for the people at least knowing their history has been tampered with and to view it with a wary eye!
It would be a start.
We read Spoon River Anthology in middle school. Thanks once more and always Tom for your great stuff
I have a photo of that very churchyard Tom spoke of where Hamilton is buried and in that photo there is the headstone of Mary Miles, wife of James Miles who died on September 11, 1796 at the age of 36. I took that photo on or around September 11, 2010. I had NO idea Hamilton was buried in that church graveyard! If I had known I would have looked for his grave and spat on it!
I'd like to know if Mr. DiLorenzo has written anything on Charles Dana, I believer that was his name, one of Lincoln's top administrators.
And things are only going to get worse.
loving the dilorenzo content
Slavery had to be Constitutional since it existed and was practiced by those who drafted it. And it has clear clauses about how to count them for representation terms. And SCOTUS backed that up with repeated rulings about returning slaves, etc. That's also why Lincoln was wrong to attack the south for leaving the union when it wasn't yet illegal to do slavery.
It was the south that attacked the north
Also, slavery wasn't the pretext for the war. The issue of slavery came later as a reason to continue waging the war
He pushed war with the south because of taxation, the slavery component was mostly incidental to the taxation issues.
Abolishing slavery was punishment for those who disobeyed the northern cartel.
@@zg-it Gee! How terrible to abolish slavery regardless of reason. Would you rather it remain?
@@mikeb5372 Lincoln enslaved half a million.
Well I guess all the modern day democrats should be thanking John Wilkes Booth because if Lincoln had lived all the Africans would have gone back to African. For the first time in my life I'm a little sorry for what Booth did not that Lincoln didn't deserve it. Deo Vindice
Hamilton sounds like he would have fit in with the villagers in “Hot Fuzz” with their constant refrain “the greater good”.
The Dutch invented capitalism already in 1600, read 'Pioneers of Capitalism: The Netherlands 1000-1800'
They did great work, but monastic in the 900s is who Rodney Stark at Baylor cites.
I would also suggest the Salamanca scholastics.
@@kingbaldwiniv5409 ok, but Capitalism took off in 1609 when first Central bank 'Amsterdam Exchange' was founded
And Worlds first Stock Exchange in 1602 (also in Amsterdam)
Capitalism may have been more pronounced in the Netherlands (i.e. The Dutch Republic), but I doubt that it was invented there.
@@thereisnospoon277 Ok, also the world's first Multinational Coorporation founded there in 1602. All of the above seem like the invention of modern capitalism right?
Capitalism = going to a bar at 2:am lurking to score 👈
Better than sitting on you butt doing nothing while expecting everything.
