You have the right to pursue happiness.
Tired of vaxtards saying they have a right not to be sick. Everyone gets sick. In America we promise the pursuit of happiness. Not a lifetime of not getting sick. We wouldn't sell fructose corn syrup if that was the case.

However, "Pursuit of happiness" didn't mean what we think it means now. The founding fathers weren't talking about the pursuit of hedonism. This seems to be coded language for owning property or working in your chosen profession.
I imagine within reasonable limits on the chosen profession part. I don't think they meant if you wanted to be a bank robber or "highwayman" that you should have that right. Then again, you would only be pursuing that, and there are no promises about the success of that.
