also , i have always heard the Founders referred to as Classical Liberals although i don't really know or understand the 'meaning' . Anyway , there is no way that today's liberals are anything like the Founding Liberals as far as i can see Edward .
Yes, Founders are called Classical Liberals by scholars so as not to confuse them with modern liberals who hold opposite views. Classical liberals wanted liberty or freedom from govt while today's welfare for all liberals want total dependence on govt
