The Founding Fathers believed that democracy rested on property as they viewed land ownership as essential for individual independence and civic virtue. Property owners were seen as having a stake in society, which encouraged responsible participation in governance and decision-making. They feared that a democracy without property rights could lead to mob rule and instability, as those without property might act against the interests of the property-owning class. Thus, they believed that a stable democracy required a foundation of property ownership to ensure informed and vested citizen engagement.
