Here, on July 4, 2014, when we ponder the premise of this very special day, that it means that those fine and hard-working people 228 years ago rightly and courageously chose to disconnect themselves and become INDEPENDENT from a distant, disconnected, oppressive government entity, and we now find ourselves here with more people DEPENDENT on a distant, disconnected, oppressive government entity than ever before in world history.
It’s so sad.....
You mean, 238 years ago.
