He thought that the United States provided the most forwarded in time example of equality in action. He admired American independence, but also advised that a society of individuals can become broken into pieces and invariable when every citizen is lost in the crowd. He also warned of the dangers he observed in some American tendencies, specially in what is referred to egalitarianism that leds to slavery, at the risk of forgetting the liberty values when focused only on material goods.

He also saw contradiction and irony in American society, when trying to explain how the nation that proclaims and loves freedom mistreated its Natives and embraced slavery; and how people of equality rejected the idea of equal benefits or advantages.
