Since we cannot actually think for the Founding Fathers, we can probably interpret what they would think through the majority of events. Considering the socioeconomical and political devastation in America, I'm pretty sure the Founding Fathers would dislike the current situation. America was founded on the basis of life, liberty, and freedom. Modern America is comprised of racial indifference, labels, and overall inequality. Quite a disgusting shift from the initial plan.
AnswerWhile I agree that modern America does have problems with the things listed above, I have to argue that the large majority of Americans have more freedom than at the time of the founding. When Jefferson spoke of "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" he meant the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness for white, landed, 21 year old males. Throughout the history of the United States, our idea of who these ideals apply to. First, in the Jacksonian era, the common man was uplifted. Then, with the Civil War, the 13th-15th Amendments, and the Civil Rights Movement, people fought for and eventually won their liberty. Meanwhile, women fought for their idependence and right to vote and finally gained it in the 1920s with the 19th Amendment. Now, 18 year olds, are able to participate in the government that many of them fight and die for. However, we aren't there yet. The 2nd paragraph of the Decleration of Independence tells us who we want to be, it is the goal. But it is and never has been a reality. I think that Langston Hughs says it best in his poem "Let America Be America Again" when he says "Let America be America again, the land that never has been yet."bifocal glasses being part of the Founding Fathers of America

I still think the revolution would have happened, our founding fathers were not just unhappy with taxation without representation but with being ruled by a country and king so far away, and that the resources collected here were used for the betterment of England not America.
The Founding Fathers found them to be obvious as shown in History, ones that stood out for themselves, being prominently and inherently evident in and of themselves.

The soldiers that fought in the war would be killed by being tarred and featherd. George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjarmin Franklin (our four founding fathers) would have been hanged.

Jackson reshaped the presidency by being the first president to declare the republic democratic which was exactly what the founding fathers were afraid of. He also was the first to declare he had a mandate from the people; as well as being a celebrity of the time.
At the time of the revolution, slavery was already being practised, and when the Founding Fathers declared that a man's property was sacred, they would have included slaves within their definition of property - as the Supreme Court ruled in 1857, when they judged that slavery was protected by the Constitution.
Sam Adams is famous for being one of the Founding Fathers in the U.S. He lived in Massachusetts and was instrumental in the American Revolution.

The unfinished pyramid: (as seen on the one dollar bill) is a symbol for the endless effort toward perfection. And in relation to it being on the back of US currency is the founding fathers commitment to America's unending effort to better it's self, however that may be.
The Declaration means a lot if you are a human being. America's Founding fathers risked all of their lives to stand up to King George. This means that we can do what we want when ever we want. We can live freely and happily in this wonder country of ours. America was the first continental country that turned free.
