Self-evident truths

  1. All men are created equal
  2. They are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights.
    Among these are:

    • Life
    • Liberty
    • the Pursuit of Happiness
  3. To secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.
  4. Whenever any government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it.

The RIGHT of the people to alter or abolish the government becomes a DUTY when a long train of abuses discloses a design to impose an absolute despotism.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Class? class? anyone? Bueller?
