What Did the Founders Mean by "Created Equal"?

The phrase "all men are created equal" has shaped America for generations. It's quoted often, but its original meaning is rarely explored.

Through a thoughtful exploration of liberty, opportunity, and the role of government, Friedman challenges readers to reconsider one of the most enduring ideas in American history.
