If any part of your "job" includes governing other people, you are not doing it "for the right reasons".
George Washington didn't become president "for the right reasons" any more than any modern president becomes president "for the right reasons". He was an evil tyrant just like his modern counterparts-- remember how he dealt with the Whiskey Rebellion.
You can't do bad things "for the right reasons", and ruling or taxing others is something no one has a right to do.

I've never studied the Whiskey Rebellion. I do know that George Washington pardoned two of the leaders of that rebellion. Thomas Jefferson removed the tax after becoming President.
ReplyDeleteIt should have been the end of Washington's presidency. Showing the Constitution was a successful troll of Americans. But, here we are.
