It was a radical idea in 1776 & it’s a radical idea today: that govts are instituted to secure “the right of all people to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Someone economically locked down in a survival mode from which they can’t escape is not free to pursue happiness

Please read the Declaration of Independence. It says that God gave us those rights, governments are instituted to secure those rights, and it’s the right of the people to alter or to abolish that govt if it fails to do so.

Not God-the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God. read the words! " the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them ... We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator"
