What did George Washington warn the political parties could cause?
To paraphrase him he said that political parties would take over and the interests of the people would be forgotten. If you look at our politics today I think he has been proven right. The dominance of the political parties has replaced the concern for the " common good". He also warned about professional politicians. This is another thing that has developed that he was right about. We have people who are in office for 20+ years and who seem to have lost touch with the people who elect them. He felt a man should do his civic duty and go home.
What did Washington warn the US against in his farewell address?
