The passage argues that no government has ever had the full consent of all governed. It notes that even the United States does not meet this ideal, though it comes closest among governments, implying pragmatic limits to consent.

It contrasts Tory and Patriot eras with modern party rule, asserting blessings come from governing contrary to will.
