lie, flibberty, and the purse-suit of happiness

What America is REALLY all about, especially nowadays when 'most everyone is "just looking out for No. 1", and with so many greedy-a** Fletcher Reedes out there who are shamelessly willing to drag fellow humans into Court on grossly-exaggerated/trumped-up charges merely in a selfish effort to fatten their own wallets (or at least to be "famous for ten minutes"), not because said other hapless mortals actually committed any crimes or otherwise intentionally wronged them.
I've heard horror-stories about what dishonest and greedy/selfish jerks some of our nation's founding fathers were really like, so I wonder if their passage in the Constitution was merely a "cell-phone static" type pf error (i.e., just like the "totally-honorable" Enron officials had conscientiously told their subordinates over their cell-phones to "ship the documents to the Feds" but this message's audio-clarity had suffered in the staticky interference-filled airwaves, and so the subordinates had thought that their bosses had said, "Rip the documents to shreds"), and these money-hungry two-faced fibbers had actually written, "lie, flibberty, and the purse-suit of happiness".
