Are all men are created equal?

Thomas Jefferson was making a philosophical statement in that Declaration

Equality, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are Nature's law or God's law, which exist independently of man's law, exists independently of the opinions of kings, monarchs, or the popular will.

That is to say that natural law exists by virtue of us simply being human, regardless if the civil authorities, government, or popular opinion act on it or acknowledge it.

The Colonial American Heiristocracy Wouldn't Let Him Attack Anyone But the King

Rights have to be earned. They are not given at birth, so don't take Jefferson's anti-royalism rhetoric as applying to the common people. Words are the disguises thoughts use.

Because rights are not given at birth, a richkid has no right to his Daddy's wealth. Cut him off at age 18 and let him get by in college on part-time low-wage jobs and be stuck with a heavy student loan. The spoiled brats and their bootlicking peons have no right to shame the rest of us for rejecting this class-biased "education."

Maybe you're using "sage" as an herb.

The Declaration, incidentally, was drafted by Jefferson, edited by others and signed by all thirteen colonies except one through their representatives at the Second Continental Congress. The idea of equality was later
enshrined in the Constitution, meaning all persons are equal under law, or are supposed to be.

Richkids Should Go Back to the Crumbling Castles of Europe Where They Belong

Allowing hereditary privileges creates a nobility; the fact that American HeirHeads have no titles is irrelevant. Those gutless unpatriotic draft-dodgers also have no Coats of Arms.

No, it doesn't.
Designing and registering a Coat of Arms does not require nobility, royalty, or title.

"If You're So Smart, Why Haven't You Made the Rich Richer?" Is Pushed by Vindictive No-Talent Blowhards

An inferior person is jealous of the talented and gloats whenever High IQs are dominated economically by some Preppy or Scrooge who is just as inferior as he is.

Another reason a bootlicking unAmerican serf loves Birth-Class Supremacy is that he hates his own Daddy for not getting rich and spoiling him. No grown-up should have Daddy issues.

The South Had Slavery, the North Had Sweatshops. The North Had No Moral Superiority

In fact, the Abolitionists' goal was to use the freed slaves for low-paid and grateful union-busting scab labor. Typical of their leadership, one of them, whose sister wrote Uncle Tom's Cabin, said this about the "uppity" White labor movement, "If a working-class man can't live on bread and water, he doesn't deserve to live."

Hello Cypress,

The moral power of natural law is it holds that natural rights exist whether or not a government sanctions it.

As a human being, we generally recognized Andrei Sakharov was entitled to liberty as a human being, even though under Soviet law he was incarcerated

Agreed. Since it is accepted as correct social policy, it is favorable if a government makes it happen.
