We have forgotten, and no longer teach or support, that a very primary reason for the American Revolution, for which blood was shed long before any Declaration of Independence, was based upon class and economic struggles. Attempts to prohibit wide disparities in Wealth and Power were at the heart of the Revolution and incorporated in the Documents of the time, the Articles of Confederation, our first national constitution, most state constitutions, and taken from the Articles of Confederation directly into our Constitution of today. There they still sit, waiting for us to enforce them. The American Revolution was the first in the Americas to successfully challenge the “one per centers” of its day, the super wealth and powerful. Such “aristocrats” who survived it, including many who became leaders of it, had to accept that the governments of the states and the United States now insisted, using the language commonly understood of the times that they often supplied, on placing a limit on social, political, legal and economic inequality and power and influence. It is time to enforce these basic constitutional principles to bring about a more just society. If you agree, please share this work wherever you can; in schools, libraries, on talk shows, though the webs, in the courts and law schools, in political campaigns and throughout the fifth estate. The United States now needs to rekindle an appreciation for these primary principles to bring about a more egalitarian society promised us all. This is not a book for the timid.
