    Linda Kerber described the predicaments of the Federalists, a political party whose members feared that popular democracy might spin out of control. Although they both fostered economic development, the Federalists were aware that an urban grassroots would result. The believers of the Federalist Party believed that Jefferson’s approach to politics was naïve. The early stages of industrialization and urban growth were providing the ingredients of a working class; already existing was an unpredictable class of permanently poor who might well be available for mob action. The God or the religious beliefs of the Federalists often appeared to behave like a fourth branch of Government. They believed that religious obligation would reinforce moral obligation and would make popular government orderly and stable. On the other hand the Jeffersonian supporters felt they should break down the barrier of habitual morality (religion), with the interruption of education, habit and superstitions they were confident they would have a more positive vice.…

    Cognitive dissonance is inner tension that a consumer experiences after recognizing an inconsistency between behavior and values or opinions. Once a purchase decision is made, the next step in the process is the evaluation of the product after purchase. Consumers expect certain outcomes from the purchase, and how well these expectations are met, determines the level of customer satisfaction. (Consumer Decision Making, Chapter 05 Slide 15). “The theory of cognitive dissonance, developed by Festinger in the 1950s, is that when a person experiences conflicting ideas, states of emotion, or feelings, they will be driven to reduce this state of tension and will take action to return to consonance (the opposite of dissonance).” (http://www.sticky-marketing.net/glossary/cognitive_dissonance.htm)…

These consumers could also reduce dissonance by avoiding information that contradicts the purchase decision. Cognitive dissonance is the inner tension that a consumer experiences after recognizing an inconsistency between behavior and values or opinions. I once found myself speeding to get to my job on time and I knew it was breaking the law, but I told my self that clocking in on time was more important. Since that day I’ve made sure I’m not late to get to work anymore so, I will not have to be in that situation again. I’ve also found myself in a store ready to purchase and I look at every calculating up, then I start to tell the cashier to take things off when I weight up what I really need most. I often do this a lot, I go to a store knowing two or three items I want or need. Only when I finally get to the register is when I make my final decision on everything by thinking about what I need urgently and what I’ll use the most.…
