George Washington was considered to be the country's first federalist President. He was supportive of a sole government which centralized power and decided over the matters that concerned all of the states.

Within the first months of his presidency, Congress created executive departments like the Department of Treasury, State, War, and the Postmaster General. Washington proceeded to appoint Thomas Jefferson as Secretary of State, among other figures.

The Federal government proved to be not as strong as it should. This was proven with the Whiskey Rebellion in 1794. In order to raise money to pay the national debt, Congress imposed a tax on distilled spirits, which farmers considered to be unfair. Threats were placed against tax collectors. As a response to this, the government summoned the federal army. However, it was too small and had to retreat against the state militias.

  • Senator Long believes that even if it isn't possible to give the poor a basic income, that it should be possible to limit their poverty.
  • That giving a family $5,000 would go a long way in alleviating poverty.

Senator Long is therefore saying that in order to fight poverty, the government needs to support the poor so that they can rise out of poverty though various means such as educating their children.
