The "whole body of the people" - not just government employees. And "always posses ARMS" - not just one.

Here, from Federal Farmer XVIII, originally attributed to Richard Henry Lee, but almost certainly not written by him. The most likely author was Melancton Smith of New York.

https://www.brighteon.com/bd70f7bc-ce39-49de-863a-c03e5777c8e2

Path to Liberty: February 19, 2024

In the first of his 18 anti-federalist letters, the Federal Farmer warned against adopting a new system hastily out of fear, which has always “been the custom of tyrants and their dependents.” Instead, he urged caution - and a deeper look at what might lead to total consolidation and a destruction of liberty.

https://www.brighteon.com/45bb755d-688b-46e7-8469-775261710c02

In his 6th Antifederalist paper, Cato predicted direct taxation on individuals in spite of Federalist assurances the government would be able to survive on trade and import duties.
