Factions are difficult to eliminate because man will always have differing opinions when he has the right to do so. Thus, factions can never be truly eliminated unless the right to do so is revoked. The second option is to give everyone the same opinion, but then that would be contradicting to the rights that the U.S fought for in the Revolutionary War.
2. If factions cannot be removed, then how can they be controlled?
Balancing the powers of the factions and keeping them in check through voting. Although one faction in a state may spark some kind of commotion, keeping the factions in balance would prevent the commotion from spreading to the rest of the state because a minority would not gain any beneficial power due to the election process.
