How Does the US Constitution Affect Business and the World of Entrepreneurs?
Our Founding Founders in 1776 pledged to each other their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor in declaring independence from the tyranny of a distant, imperial government. Eleven years later, our nation was organized as a more perfect union with the formal signing of the Constitution on September 17, 1787. Today, we commemorate this event, honor the Constitution, and reflect upon what prompted the Founders to take the risks they did in establishing the United States.
The US Constitution is the MOST important document established in United States. It is the one document that affects every single citizen within the United States every single day. The founding fathers framed this great document to serve and protect the citizens of the greatest country on earth, the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Furthermore, it was written to protect those affected by business commerce and trade.
