Very disappointed with @fedex. I have been an infrequent but loyal Customer for decades even using them as an example in my presentations as an example of outstanding service. Yet, on an item bought via @Etsy, they charged a $15 fee on an $8 import duty. Seriously‽ @FedExHelp

America's civic religion and oldest national aspiration? It's the Declaration of Independence. As MLK, Lincoln, and Roosevelt before him found, Jefferson's words offer the clearest articulation of the American promise.

July 4th is celebrated as Independence Day, but the vote for independence actually happened on July 2nd! Congress approved the Declaration on the 4th, and most signed it on August 2nd. Both Adams and Jefferson passed away on July 4th, exactly 50 years after the adoption.

The Declaration of Independence wasn't born of immediate triumph. After 86 alterations and 500 word cuts, the final 1,337 words were adopted after 3 days of debate. No trumpets, no cheers on July 4, 1776. Discover the story behind the signers on The Soul of Enterprise.
