Every year, we celebrate our “freedom” by remembering the day the founding fathers established the United States as an independent nation—and while we are waving American flags, drinking too much beer and watching fireworks with our families, do we ever take a moment to think about the fact that we aren’t actually free?

Dependence day is a grim reality.
Anyways, silver lining etc.
BTW It was a 3% tax. Yes, the American revolution was fought over a 3% tax. Tax in Las Vegas is currently at 8%. Hmmm.
You are right, Rachelblevins. Paying taxes is one thing, but the foolishly way they squander, my hard earned money is painful.
Great blog, and I agree with you I also follow you,
thanks for sharing

True independence and freedom can only exist in doing what's right.
Thank you so much!
Thank you!
Absolutely!
But we do have a say. Really the biggest problem we have is that only half our population bothers to make their voice heard. If they did we'd see a lot fewer career politicians, and a lot less corruption.
