LAD #5: Federalist #10

1.  Why are factions so difficult to eliminate?
  • Because people have different interests so they like to "hang out" with people that have the same views as them. Not everyone is the same and these differences cause divides (factions) among people. People have the liberty and  free will in this country to decide what to do.
 
2.  If factions cannot be removed then how can they be controlled?
  • Factions can be controlled by removing their effects; since removing the freedom to let factions exist would contradict what the American revolution was for. Since a minority faction is in essence a, minority, it can be easily controlled because the majority will outvote it. To control a majority, either the same view of the majority most not occur at the same time; or, a representative democracy.
