Americans may think they know a lot about the Declaration of Independence, but many of those ideas are elitist and wrong, as  historian Woody Holton  explains. His forthcoming book “ Liberty is Sweet: The Hidden History of the American Revolution ” shows how independence and the Revolutionary War were influenced by women, indigenous and enslaved people, religious dissenters and other once-overlooked Americans. In celebration of the United States’ 245th birthday, Holton offers six surprising facts about the nation’s founding document – including that it failed to achieve its most immediate goal and that its meaning has changed from the founding to today. Ordinary Americans played a big role The Declaration of Independence was written by wealthy white men, but the impetus for independence came from ordinary Americans.  Historian Pauline Maier  discovered that by  July 2, 1776 , when the Continental Congress voted to separate from Britain, 90 provincial and l...

The Biden administration is developing an executive order directing agencies to strengthen oversight of industries that they perceive to be dominated by a small number of companies, a wide-ranging attempt to rein in big business power across the economy, according to people familiar with the plans. The executive order, which President Joe Biden could sign as soon as next week, would direct regulators of industries from airlines to agriculture to rethink their rule-making process to inject more competition and to give consumers, workers and suppliers more rights to challenge large producers. The goal is to broaden the way policy makers approach business concentration in the U.S., going beyond conventional antitrust enforcement focused on blocking big mergers. For example, companies in industries controlled by a small number of big firms might face new rules for disclosing fees to consumers or for their relationships with suppliers, the people familiar with the effort said.
