Why there ain’t no party like the Anti-Federalist Party
I believe in state rights. As an anti-federalist, I neither wish to see the ratification of the constitution nor the rise of the” supreme” federal government. The Federalists may disagree with me; however, the ideas I refute from the “Federalist Number 51” will be sure to change their minds.
The idea of three branches of federal government- legislative, judiciary, and executive- is destined to fail. This federal government resembles that of Britain’s monarchy, which we all know has no place for us Americans. All of the wealthy, privileged aristocrats will be at the head of the government, leaving no voice for the commoners or lower class peoples. The idea of popular sovereignty, which our country has fought so hard for, will be diminished. How is this considered a nation then? Will we become a nation that ignores and stifles the voice of the governed? The wealthy aristocrats will dominate America’s government and will lead our nation into discord, with the rich and poor gap widening further more.
There will be no government with the “consent of the governed” or “dependency on the people” if these aristocrats remain in power. Because of their privilege, they will have no connection with the Yeoman farmers or the commoners. The commoners, who make up roughly 75% of our nation, will have no true voice in the government because the aristocrats will overpower their voice and pursue actions only beneficial for them. We cannot abide by a government that will not account for the welfare of all of its people, as it is its duty to govern with the consent of the governed.
Furthermore, the rights of the people will not be “doubly protected” with both the state and federal government in charge. The federal government will be so disconnected from state governments because of its geographic distance from the people that it will not listen to their interests and will respond to the interests of wealthier and more powerful individuals. Moreover, the federal government does not know the needs of the people residing across each individual state and thus, cannot adequately serve its populous. We must find an effective alternative that will stop the federal government from having extensive powers and imposing too much control over the state governments.
As such, the Federalist Number 51 does not represent my views on how America’s government should be organized. I believe in a stronger state government rather than a federal government due to the corruption of aristocratic powers that will govern our fine nation. It is our duty as public officials to heed the needs of those who entrust in us their well being and ensure their voice is properly heard across our government.
