Clayton Cramer's post of excerpts from Andrew Jackson's fairwell address contain some amazing stuff. Among the topics he discusses are taxes, duties, the expanding role of federal government, and corrupt politicians or businessmen profit from these.
I've never read Jackson before. The reasoning displayed is dense and deep. He was an impressive writer -- not a stupid hillbilly as his political opponents suggested.
