American Founding rooted in wary view of human limits
In celebrating its 200th birthday, the United States is credited with a realism born from the belief that people, even leaders, can err. Skepticism shaped the Constitution with checks and balances to curb power, contrasting France’s optimistic path and highlighting reliance on religious moral restraint. Jefferson’s motto on jealousy, not confidence, guides governance.

Woman to head discrimination hunt for equal rights
The Ford administration will appoint a woman to lead a new task force to eliminate federal laws and rules that discriminate by sex. Assistant Attorney General J Stanley Pottinger said the study will examine gender bias in Social Security, disability benefits, and federal promotions and may push new legislation to protect women's rights. The plan aims to reveal how many laws treat men and women differently and could seek changes in criminal law if differential treatment is found.
