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????

See below:

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

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.
