When the Founding Fathers met at the Philadelphia convention in 1787, and wrote the constitution of the United States, they decided they wanted it to consist of 4 main points. A representative and accountable government, the separation of powers between 3 branches of government, a federal structure and a limited government. They wanted limited government, by which the government would do only what was essential, leaving the citizens’ rights and freedoms as untouched as possible. This framework of government was put in place by the Founding Fathers because of their fear of tyranny. They were influenced by the writings of the french political philosopher Montesquieu.
Issue 7: Was the Constitution of the United States Written to Protect the Economic Interests of the Upper Classes? According to radical historian Howard Zinn, the Founding Fathers were an elite group of northern money interests and southern slaveholders who used Shay’s Rebellion in Massachusetts as a pretext to create a strong central government, which protected the property rights of the rich to the exclusion of slaves, Indians, and non-property-holding whites. Zinn uses an excerpt from historian George Bancroft to explain his reasoning. Bancroft basically said that the Constitution left out individuals and favored certain classes.

Cruz also complied with the requirements to send a summons and complaint to a corporation by sending it to the president of Fagor, Patricio Barriga. The return receipt signed by Tina Hayes, who is authorized to accept mail on Barriga’s behalf, also suffices the requirements for satisfactory proof of service. The appellate court found no requirement that the return receipt be signed by the defendant.

New England would set the tone; “Massachusetts bay officials regarded the colony as a “free state” subject only to laws of their making” (Lambert31).
