    Historical knowledge is indispensable for those who want to build a better world. -- Ludwig von Mises

    A formal study of law in an American law school ought to begin with the Declaration of Independence and the Principles that inspired it.

    Does it?

    No sixth grader could fathom the significance of the Declaration.

    Why not. They certainly can read it, are taught it and can understand it. Why couldn't they understand it's significance? I think I did.

    Perhaps not in the manner that you fathom it.

    Why don't you share that with us?
