Ethics are tied not only to ordered liberty, but also to happiness. But take note: The Founders did not cite the unalienable right to happiness, but to the pursuit of it! Today we see a huge emphasis on happiness. I think that most people have only heard of the right to pursue happiness in the Declaration of Independence, and they forget that the pursuit of happiness is sometimes costly. Again, happiness itself is not an unalienable right! Also, many are confused about what happiness is. Does it really mean doing whatever gives you warm fuzzies inside, or is there more to it?
