He thinks it started out of sinfulness and for that in his belief in God that God stands in opposition to monarchy, this is proved by the many pages he wrote; Paine refutes the theory that hereditary succession reduces civil wars, because there has been at the least maybe ight civil wars and nineteen rebellions in Britain's history which Paine believes only results in only producing bad governing and bloodshed.

Clearly, Paine thinks the English monarchy to be a waste of resources. The King is whorshipped and receives an inmense allowance from the government for basically nothing, since with the advent of a Prime Minister his function is mostly symbolic. Any honest man who makes his living through hard work is more useful for society than all the kings that have ruled throught history. If this wasn't clear enough, Paine refers to them as "crowned ruffians", mere criminals that are seen as something else only thanks to their hereditary position.

A paper that talks about all of these topics could be titled "America's fear of communism, socialism, and anarchy after World War I."

All of the aforementioned events/people deal with fear felt by American citizens. For example, Sacco and Vanzetti were two Italian immigrants known for their political views. They believed in a society that had no government, also known as an anarchy. These two men were accused of, and later found guilty, of committing a murder. However, many individuals argued that they were found guilty not because of the evidence but rather the fact that they were anarchists.

The Palmer Raids were another result of fear towards a specific group. In this case, Attorney General Palmer raided the homes of 5,000 suspected communists. The goal was to uncover any plans to overthrow the American government. No evidence was found to support this conclusion.
