As we've seen, Brutus is deeply concerned that the proposed Constitution will result in a government that extends its reach into every aspect of Americans lives. And not in a good way. We turn next to Brutus' concerns about the judiciary. He will explain that it's too complicated for a simple everyday man such as himself to completely grasp - because, he reminds us - lawyers make everything over complicated on purpose.
He points out that the plain language of the text would eliminate the long standing Sovereign Immunity of the States. Hamilton and Madison will argue - vociferously - that is not the case, that nothing has changed.
Meanwhile in South Carolina, an executor for the estate of a man who sold Georgia some much needed supplies during the War, hasn't been paid by Georgia. Mr. Chisholm seemingly has no recourse to recover the unpaid funds... or... will he?
