it's his accolades, one of them being that he is one of the major influences of the United States founding fathers, that makes me believe he deserves to be more well known.
Seeing how things turned out (and I'm not even talking about the last ten years, I mean since the beginning, right after the writing of the Constitution) that doesn't really convince me of anything. It wasn't all bad, for sure, but it's a mixed bag, for sure. Especially our approach to crime and our beliefs as to how it begins, and how to reduce it in our society.

@AFTSOV Really? Now I'm curious. What would you say are his major deep insights? And what writings would you recommend starting with?

@AFTSOV Even so, he's not as famous as Socrates or Kant.

@destraht To be honest, depending on where you live, it's hard to not be negative. Lots of things are falling apart gradually and suddenly.

@TiberiusBravo87 HP Lovecraft and Stephen King combined together couldn't write a story more horrifying.

@neo_ Sounds like you need a lot of interesting connections to make six figures out of a job like this. Sounds sketchy.

@AFTSOV That's really quite obscure. How did you even know about this guy?
