Yeah, and many of those founders were rich businessmen who didn’t want to pay taxes to the king of England. This is a human problem, not a national one.

    George washington, franklin, jefferson, madison, all the founders were slave-owning colonizers who explicitly modelled their country after ancient Rome.

    It's not a human problem, these were specifically evil people who did not share the same values as the people they murdered and enslaved.

    Most countries were not founded in this way.
