Factions are difficult to eliminate because you must either remove liberty, which is essential to political life, or give everybody the same opinions and passions. To remove liberty would be unwise, and standardize opinions would be impractical. 2. If factions cannot be removed then how can they be controlled? |
If the factions are in the minority then the majority can defeat it by vote. If it is in the majority then either the leader of the majority must be taken out or the passion they have must be rendered so it can’t be carried out into schemes of oppression. Having a republic for government would be the best way to prevent the factions.
