"FACTIONALISM"
COPY OF FEDERALIST 10 - WITH HIGHLIGHTS 

VIDEO: Drafting and Ratifying the Constitution

Now, our very nature insists upon the rise of factions. All humans are unequal in "their possessions, their opinions and their passions"; they accumulate wealth of different types and amounts. And given the opportunity, citizens do not act according to moral or religious motivation, but to advance their own selfish interests. Human nature is faultly and unperfectable, and this must be realized and accepted. Restoring Eden is impossible.30 Year old article on Factionalism
