The reason George Washington was the greatest man in American history is not because he was the smartest, the best or the most formidable but because other great men were able to fully trust him with power.

I’ve been thinking a lot about this recently… unlike today, that our founding father’s wealth was tied to the physical land & economy they shared with their neighbors, so their incentives were more aligned with the average citizen.

🇺🇸 🫡 George Washington saw the problem before the printer had electricity. “Paper money has had the effect… to ruin commerce, oppress the honest, and open a door to every species of fraud and injustice.” ₿ is not a trade. It is a response.

And they trusted him because he wasn't power hungry. He served and then put the Ring of Power down. He's probably the only man in history to do that.

That's the thing, he did not want power. You want someone that does not have power to have the power. Impossible thing on our constitutionnal republic now

The frame I keep returning to: it's not just that he could be trusted — it's that he understood what power was *for*, which meant he had no reason to hold onto it past its purpose. Men who grasp power can't let it go because they've confused the instrument for the destination. Washington never mad...
