LAD #5: Federalist #10

1.  Why are factions so difficult to eliminate?
Factions can be fixed either by controlling the causes of the factions disobedience or controlling its effects. You can rid the factions of a cause by removing liberty or giving everyone the same interests. Both of these ideas contain flaws, it is saying either you take away an essential part of life, which would be unwise, or you make everyone have the same beliefs, which would be almost impossible and totally  impractical. Therefore, you cannot eliminate a faction, it is much to challenging, you can only control the effects of a faction. Factions are a challenge to eliminate because the ways to eliminate are challenging and unjustifiable, so the most efficient method to working with factions is to control the effects of the factions.

2.  If factions cannot be removed then how can they be controlled?
The best way to control a faction is to make sure they are a minority. The Untied States has principles that make sure the majority is what dictates this country. The minority will overall have a very limited effect on the majority. You can use the factions passion to help your cause, also. Overall, factions are controlled by the democratic principles that make up our Constitution, they make sure the minority factions can be controlled.
