More than a celebration of our nation’s birth, the Fourth of July is an occasion for Americans to reflect on the Founding Fathers’ hope for the creation of an independent, prosperous, and democratic system of government that fosters freedom and opportunity for all. America’s Founding Fathers were visionaries who risked their lives to assert in the Declaration of Independence “that all men are created equal.” These ideals have helped shape the United States and have also inspired people around the world to recognize that all human beings should be treated equally in dignity and rights.

Of course, the AEC is not a magic business bullet that is waiting to fire before the country can start benefitting, even though that is the way it is often portrayed.
