"Hamilton was indeed a singular character. Of acute understanding, disinterested, honest, and honorable in all private transactions, amiable in society, and duly valuing virtue in private life, yet so bewitched & perverted by the British example, as to be under thoro' conviction that corruption was essential to the government of a nation."
--Thomas Jefferson, on Alexander Hamilton in The Anas

What we have in DC today is the end result of being perverted along the way by Hamilton's thinking.
