"Our greatest happiness DOES NOT depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is ALWAYS the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and individual liberty in all just pursuits."

"Our greatest happiness DOES NOT depend on the condition of life in which chance has placed us, but is ALWAYS the result of a good conscience, good health, occupation, and individual liberty in all just pursuits."
(Thomas Jefferson)
To Jefferson and the rest of America's Founders, "freedom" meant INDIVIDUAL LIBERTY, which is freedom FROM government.
That's why the entire Bill of Rights (the first 10 Amendments) RESTRICTED government action.
