Alexander Hamilton's view of the nature of human beings was that they were guided by good intentions but could also be influenced by their own advantage. He felt that people's actions could at times be determined by their "passions" and self-interests. Some Founders words were more poetic and inspiring. Hamilton liked to deal with people as they were, not as he wished they were.
