The American Revolution by Gordon S. Wood

I read the chapter on equality. I guess I find this so interesting because even today we fight with this issue. In a country that is suppose to be open to every one's dreams and goals then why do we have so many levels in society? It is no surprise that coming from an affluent family is an enormous help in reaching your goals. Many have to work much harder than any one else to achieve the same goal. I guess today as well as colonial times, equality is not fair. Even in colnial times when we were in the birth of a new nation, there were exceptions made to equality. I believe this is still an area where our will always have to work on.
