Well? For me, out of all of them, I'd have to say Thomas Jefferson. Aaron Burr as well, since he was basically a clone of Jefferson, but the reasons are multiple. First off, I think Jefferson had everything about government/economy/society right in general:
- Law is, more often than not, merely an instrument of tyrants, and should be regarded as secondary in terms of justice. - Organized religion is a disaster. On the flip side, atheism is completely irrational and primitive. - Banking institutions are more dangerous than standing armies. - The nature of executive government is inherently oppressive. - Peace and trade with all nations; alliance with none. - Christian (i.e. supremely ethical) values are essential to liberty. - Separation of the INSTITUTIONS of church and state, not ideals. - "Credit" is a concept designed to enslave humans. - Central government should always be weak for the sake of freedom. - Democracy is a batsh!t crazy concept. |
