Arguments about human nature and therefore, the proper role of government are as old as both human nature and government. The debate is as old as human nature and government themselves and is incredibly well-illustrated by the contrast between two of the most important Founding Fathers of the United States: Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton.
