Respuesta :

Political parties may lead to corruption and over-concentration of power in a few party leaders. Those are two of the reasons why some people were opposed to the formation of political parties.

George Washington lived and governed in a very different time. He was also heavily influenced by his experience under British rules. The Brits at the time (and even now) were ruled by political parties. So while I do not agree with Washington, his view is understandable.

political parties allow special interests to influence govt. its a lot easier to influence politicians in a party than independent ppl. the american revolution was against britain which had political parties. so washington n other founding fathers were opposed 2 the formation of political parties.

i agree as the corrupted political parties today is proof that washington is right.
