Declaration, adopted [223] years ago today, says
(although those in high office don't like to be reminded) that government is not sacred, that it is set up to give people an equal right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness and that if it fails to do this, we have a right to "alter or abolish it." Howard Zinn from "The Spirit of Rebellion" in the Zinn Reader. |
