I applied a modern interpretation? I believe that it was you that injected a federal government into the debate that did not exist at the time of Franklin's statement. I would say nice try, serf dude, but it wasn't.

Franklin was supporting a “government” over the individual.

(TRT is still working on if that was a Colonial-plural government or a Colonial- single. I’m fine with either; I admitted my wrong.).

I would have thought a smart dude like you who likes to point out the “ignorance” of others would have known better.

Might want to have TRT proofread you’re posts first if your going to use quotes.
