On "The Pursuit of Happiness"

William Faulkner, eminent American novelist, and Nobel laureate, said this about the US Constitution, which guarantees the "the inalienable right of man to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

He says: What the Founding Fathers meant by "pursuit of happiness" was:

"... by "pursue" they did not mean just to chase happiness, but to work for it. And they both knew what they meant by "happiness" too: not just pleasure, idleness, but peace, dignity, independence and self-respect; that man's inalienable right was the peace and freedom in which, by his own efforts and sweat, he could gain dignity and independence, owing nothing to any man.

The "Illfare State" is un-American.

If we want to be a better country that the USSA we must reject the Illfare State.

Yes, the "inalienable right to life, liberty, property, and the pursuit of happiness." No charity. Dignity. Self-esteem.

I heartily recommend it.
