Since in America we celebrate our "Independence" in many ways.
There has been many changes to this holiday in my life time.
When I was younger most people didn't have to work on this day.
Today, it seems a lot of people do work.

In this poll there are 4 listed.
Which best matches your view?


THE POLL DIDN'T POST????

Which best matches your view of this holiday in 2023?


[ ] I think about the early Patriots and reflect from the break of England.

[ ] I think it’s a day off from work for most to enjoy cookouts and fireworks with friends and family.

[ ] I think we have less independence than we used to.

[ ] I think it’s a time to tune out all the bad news and be grateful we live in freedom

I added your poll, Foggy :wave:

If this thread gets too hot im sure it will be moved to the political base.....

I think we have less freedom than we did in the 80s..... All this technolohgy has people trapped in a box and they dont even realise it!!

Today's 4th of July is nothing like the 4th that I grew up with.

Lots and lots of change, and granted I'm older but believe I'd feel the same
way no matter what age I am today.

I added your poll, Foggy :wave:


Thanks for fixing by adding my poll...

I really don't know what I did wrong :confused::confused:

To Me, Each Year Anyone gets a day off from work to enjoy cookouts & fireworks
