LAD #5: Federalist #10













I think the Republicans and Democrats relate to the Federalist Papers #10, in that more or less the two parties are factions of our government.

1.  Why are factions so difficult to eliminate?

Factions are so difficult to eliminate because the two ways of doing it would be to get rid of the liberty and freedom given to the people, or to make sure every person had the same opinions, passions, and interests. Making either of these things happen would utterly destroy the foundation this country was built on making it more or less impossible to eliminate factions.

2.  If factions cannot be removed then how can they be controlled?

Factions can be controlled by making sure there is no single majority for a passion or interest. Another way they could be controlled is by having the majority have another passion or interest which makes them unable to put into effect schemes of oppression.
