No analysis of this phrase can be complete with out a thourough read of Ayn Rand's essay Man's Rights. or this quoye from F.A. Hayek's The Constitution of Liberty. (Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 1960.)
"Observe...the intellectual precision of the Founding Fathers: they spoke of the right to the pursuit of happiness -- not of the right to happiness. It means that a man has the right to take the actions he deems necessary to achieve his happiness; it does not mean that others must make him happy.... The right to life [and liberty] means that a man has the right to support his life by his own work (on any economic level, as high as his ability will carry him); it does not mean that others must provide him with the necessities of life...The right to property means that a man has the right to take the economic actions necessary to earn property, to use it and to dispose of it; it does not mean that others must provide him with property."
