> all men are created equal
This statement is so misunderstood.
At the time it was written, it meant something like the following:
"Men are ALREADY equal, so any effort to equalize them is pointless. Each has their own talents and capabilities, and will succeed or fail based on how they use those talents and capabilities. When a man fails, it is because he is a failure, and he can't blame anyone else but himself."
In short, if we adopted the FF conception of equality, we would perform TND.
