The Federalist section contains 85 separate web pages and like others of this nature will have need of a specialized navigation maneuvering too many pages to be left inside the main Crossfire Website. I have decided to give every section with more than ten pages its own style menu to make navigating CrossfireEngineering.com easier for you to find information and me to maintain it. section like its brother sections (i.e.: Meet the Anti-Federalists) will have separate MENUs to make navigation a little easier. These two Groups of Patriots were major contributors to the Declaration of Independence, The Articles of Confederation, The U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Together they formed our Representative Republic to avoid the pitfalls of a democracy by giving testimony to their fellow Americans the very unstable nature of a democratic country. The democratic form of government dissolves in a short time as does the socialist form of government. Two examples are The French Revolution and Venezuela {the former being the end of a democracy and the latter the inevitably end of all socialist governments.

The Federalist Party was te first Political Party organized to correct the problems with the very limited power the Federal Government had under the Articles of Confederation. The need to increase the power of the Federal Government to regulate the states in the ways they dealt with other states and their citizens within their states. The Federalist Party believed that the change was necessary to survive as a nation. They saw a need to regulate commerce between the States and problems such as the Shea Rebellion made clear. James Madison called out to the states to send delegates to a “A Meeting of Commissioners to remedy defects of Articles of Confederation.” Alexander Hamilton presided over this meeting now referred to as the Annapolis Convention. Only a few states were able to get there in time due to short notice, ill weather and distance. But those in attendance called for the Philadelphia Convention one year later in 1787 to do what the ‘Annapolis Convention’ could not do. The Federalist party wanted a much stronger Centralized Federal Government while the Anti-Federalists wanted to keep the states in power over the Federal Government. Those invested in the Federalist view of a strong Federal Governmentin addition to the three picturesd above were: Fisher Ames, William Blount, David Brearly, Francis Dana, William R. Davie, John Dickinson, James Duane, Oliver Ellsworth, William Few, Nicholas Gilman, Nathaniel Gorham, John Hancock, James Iredell, William Samuel Johnson, Rufus King, John Langdon, Robert Livingston, John Marshall, Thomas McKean, Edmund Pendleton, Timothy Pickering, Charles Pinckney, Charles Cotesworth Pinckney, Thomas Pinckney, Edmund Randolph, Benjamin Rush, John Rutledge, Roger Sherman, Richard Dobbs Spaight, James Wilson, John Witherspoon
Somewhat like what is going on in our Republic today. The Utopians of both major parties Social Democrats and RINORepublicans. Often their intentions are good but out of failure to see what history teaches of every attempt at socialism being implemented since the 1700’s is Utopia is a Ponzi Scheme and like all Ponzi Schemes fail buy the very same defect. In the world of “White Color Crime.”they run out of investors(In Socialist Countries they run out out of people to tax enough. And the choices left are forced (slave) labor camps, death squads, ethnic cleansing and incineration and mass graves to hide the faults of the system to work.
And the opium pipe dream of a Utopian that everyone will work to support their dream without the pipe. The die-hard Utopian will point to this country or that country but if we do not examine those examples to see how they are doing it we will see: Our tax money is supporting them by providing their defense, not collecting the dues thy accumulate by not paying anything for their own defense. We never even asked for our lives and money we used to rescue the world from the mess they caused with their European Intrigues causing Two World Wars.
To an engineer it seems like a no brainer for our country. As our employment rate continues to rise there is still an element that is not willing to work. Here is where I have no way of knowing or judging it this is because of lack of jobs requiring the skill level they have because of the public school system steady decline over the last fifty years.
The Federalists were aware of the dangers with Utopian Dreams and the problems in Europe in their age. We see already in this Country of ours the failures of Social Security, medicare and welfare systems. Social Security collapsing as congress uses the payroll deductions they take from us for our future welfare and spend it to pay for the votes they need to stay in office. The Founding Fathers warned us that if we elect persons of with moral character and expect more from them we are fools. This will all be covered item by item in other pages on this web site. We all know that the loyalty of a people can be bought by providing them with the sustenance they need to live for free. Do these Utopian candidates just want the poor they support with the workers taxes all year to have their support at election time when they need the votes. Or does it make then feel better about their perfect life redistributing the tax money they take from the workers who cannot afford what the subsidized get for free for their own families.
Does a government that takes total control of your life from how many corn flakes you can have for breakfast, what size soda bottle you can buy and the straws you cannot use. The type of bread you must buy in the store and when you go to bed and rise to go to the job they have given you. Can you believe they have a device to save time when it is daylight saving time. They will tell you what sex you are and tell you who will be your partner whose sex was also determined by a bureaucrat on the other side of the country. If you are dissatisfied with the sex they have chosen for you you can apply to the committee for reassignment who has a special facility where they can employ treatments for free to help you to adjust to your appointed sex or select another one that is more suited to your mental capacity to understand as well as the government’s to know what sex you should be than an uneducated Professor of Genetic Research who lost his job over failure to adapt from your pre conceived idea of being a male to what the government needs to obtain a diverse society.
Maybe you want total control of your life by an all wise and powerful federal government as we saw in Germany, USSR and China that has in the last century accounted for over a 100,000,000 murders, political executions, ethnic cleansing and Wars and those were just the big three centers of evil then. They had the paranoid and sociopathic rulers who would j=have their secret police and other eliminate entire populations if they even had a bad dream about the possibility of their power being challenged by them. having under the extreme limited powers of the Article of Confederation and called the Annapolis Convention and the attendance was low due to travel conditions so the Constitutional Convention was call the following year in Philadelphia. Three men who composed 85 articles in the New Your News Papers under the name Publius [referred to as the Federalist papers] were the men pictured below on this page. There articles as well as their counter part in Philadelphia, Tench Coxe, who wrote articles in the Philadelphia Papers under the name A Pennsylvanian were picked up and reprinted across the nation and contributed greatly to the adoption of the US Constitution when they added the Bill of Rights to it to settle many of the fears of the States at the Convention.
