Founding fathers and men fought and defeated Englands monarchy. So we could be free to run our own lives the way we wish, open businesses and be free to practice our religion as we want.
Today, especially in some states taxes are high again, and we need to revolt in my opinion to reduce the tax burden so we can be more free to choose what to do with our own labor and our money.

Can also throw in underpaid, overworked labor, tax-dodging corporations and such. But today isn’t a day for complaining, despite it all we have much to be thankful for!
Happy independence day!!!
Happy 4th. ![:us_outlying_islands:](https://d38bqls1q93fod.cloudfront.net/en/wow/images/emoji/twitter/us_outlying_islands.png?v=6" ":us_outlying_islands:")

4th of july is the fight of our independence those people are dead 200 years now <3
In CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.
The Unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America.
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. --Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
…
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
Happy Birthday, America!

Its such a shame that most folks don’t share this attitude. Its okay to celebrate the birth of this nation and not support everything that’s happened in the past.
It was a different time.
And every great nation has been built and founded on the subjugation of others The ones still around today are just the ones who won enough to keep other people from screwing with them… Countless kingdoms have risen and fallen and countless more will exist if our species removes its head from the hole in its own digestive system.
To REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE and point fingers at america without acknowledging the atrocities humanity has committed as a whole is just stupid…
Also.
We’ve come so far from where we were, sacrificing people to the pagan gods and eating them and other ridiculous things… I wish there was still more of that around but I digress…

And tomorrow we celebrate the relatively unknown July 5th. When our founding fathers woke up with severe hangovers and said “I signed my name on WHAT?”

Ahh, the 14th anniversary of starting with my job.
4th of July is basically “Dog Hell” in our house.
