We celebrate this day because we liberated ourselves from a government which we saw as tyrannical.
Now, with the RIAA suing individuals (corporations were treated as people in court so that they could be sued by employees, did you know that?), or at least planning to, there is less definition between government and corporation.
Does the company you work for demand the loyalty that you’ve previously reserved for your country? Think about that.
I propose that in honoring this day, we figure out just exactly what our nation is. I also propose that if it’s not what you want it to be, you step up to the plate and change it.
What, you ask, am I doing? I’m trying to figure out if I’m in the City of Lansing or the Township of Lansing so I can figure out which local government I’m going to get involved in.
