NATURAL RIGHTS
I always say that The Federalist Papers relate to the events playing out in the country today. Yet I often avoid following current political events on the news and/or C-SPAN. (It can be too painful.) But without even listening to them, I know that this Federalist quote applies to the current hearings on the Supreme Court justice:
Government is necessary. The people must cede some of their natural rights to the government to give it some powers. Federalist # 2 [paragraph 2]*
