Obstacles: Legislators useful projects who not adopted?
Tis not the best of all conceivable, but the best of all
practicable expedientregulations, that is to be adopted - ButAnd thus
the Legislator is apt enough forof himself to remember
the comfort ofsuccess if it accrues, redounds to himbut in
with the rest of the community: disappointment
with the adium attending it, is his own.
For a contrary reason,issuing from the same speculative reformers
adium from a bad or unsuccessful
project is much more certain
to him, than lesser reputation from
a good one. If there are any
malecontents in the government
+ the attempt of enforcing an
unpopular measure
(& what state is without it's
malecontents?) they will leave
no stone unturned to crush
the project, or if that be
not profitabletoo much to attempt, to crush the
glory resulting from it.
if that cannot be done, they
will deny him the propetyauthorship of it
or if that be beyond
dispute, they will say
he was forced into it; and
that he did it to make himself
popular; as if assigning
the nature of an
action were destroying it's
merit.of it
If the Privilige & Station Acts had been brought in
by the popular party & carried through after a struggle
against the general senseinclination of men in power what
and would there have been to triumphs & acclamations?
