Rationale of Reward.
§.1. Scale of Ranks

N.B. When this was added to the Catalogue of
useful effects, a tacit assumption made, was that all
Governments were good: government in some shape
or other being unquestionably necessary, and the distinction
between what is good and what is bad in government
not being taken into the account. But a bad government
is already too strong, without addition in this or any other
shape: and a good Government not only has no need
of it, but for the reason abovementioned can not admit
of it. Accordingly, by the only form of government that
can on any ground of reason be called a good one, namely
a representative democracy, as exemplified in the Anglo-American
United States, it is not only rejected
but abhorred. By these same states, the here proposed
embellishment of natural dignity may be adopted
or rejected. But wheresoever rejected, it assuredly will
not be abhorred.
