		Central to the Consumers’ Republic was the concept of what I call "purchasers as citizens," individuals who, because they were active exercisers of their purchasing power, were, by definition, good citizens as well, delivering social, political, and economic benefits to the nation.
		In the Consumers’ Republic, purchasers who bought more, newer, and better were considered good citizens because they kept the engine of mass consumption humming with its promise of far-reaching social, political, and economic rewards for all.

	How Egalitarian Societies Rein In Potential Despots
		Boehm rejects the either-or arguments that have raged over egalitarianism, in which some have insisted that human society is fundamentally hierarchical, or susceptible to control by powerful individuals, and others have argued that it will naturally evolve to become increasingly egalitarian.
		Boehm argues that egalitarianism amounts to the overthrow of "alpha males" -- powerful, dominant men -- by rank-and-file members of a society who individually have little power but who, by cooperating with one another, can impose their collective will on the alphas.
		"Egalitarian societies constitute a very special type of hierarchy, one in which the rank and file avoid being subordinated by vigilantly keeping alpha-type group members under their collective thumbs," he writes.

	Amazon.com: The Creation of the American Republic, 1776-1787: Books: Gordon S. Wood (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-09)
		The resulting confederation and states were perceived by many American intellectuals as dominated by greed and self-interest, there was an absence of the expected moral regeneration, and there were increasing concerns about the power of state legislatures causing both abuse of minority rights and threats to social order.
		This gave government an essentially independent role and represented a form of social engineering because the Federalists essentially depended on constructed institutions to guarantee social success rather than the prior emphasis on public virtue.
		The ideas of constitutionialism, large republics, delegation of sovereignty, mixed government with responsibility divided between states and the Federal government, and emphasis on social contracts as a source of authority all stem from this period.
