How did the Declaration of Independence change everyone's lives?

The Declaration of Independence changed some aspects of everyone's lives. The successful drive for independence gave Americans the right to vote for leaders, the right to choose a religion without government interference, the right to own property and businesses, and the right to a trial by jury if accused of a crime. These were tremendous changes from the British system. For many people, though, the Declaration actually meant very little for a very long time. The Declaration meant that slaves would continue in bondage (England banned slavery long before America did so). The Declaration did little for the rights of women.
