Just can't relinquish the comfortable MYTHS can you. Virtually every one of the politicians of the days of the Founders served decades in government. Washington, Madison, Monroe, Jefferson are some of those "parasites," Adams, George Clinton, JQAdams, Calhoun, Clay, Webster are other non-Founders who did the same.

In FACT, it is very rare to find a major politician of that era who DIDN'T serve in governmental posts for decades. Why don't you name some (other than Lincoln and professional soldiers) who were examples of the MYTHOLOGICAL citizen-politician? I will be waiting a looong time for than one.

You probably believe Icareus really flew too close to the sun too, don't you.

So I guess you REALLY are Hank Rearden since screennames to you describe real people, attitudes and NOT are there for ironic comment.
