The fourth day of July marks the day that brave men came together to start a brave experiment. They put their liberty on the line in an effort to cut the ties to a government that they found that they could no longer support. Their efforts continued for many years until they came together to form a union that was able to prosper and grow into a force as the world had never seen. This union has lived for many years and in many lives on till today.
July 4th of 2010 marked the 236th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence from British colonial rule. In all of those years we as a nation have faced many trials and tribulations. The nation has seen total war with devastating destruction. It has seen years of plenty and years of scarcity. But the thing that has held it together is a spirit unlike any other in the world. The thing that separates the US from the rest of the world has been a independence that lives deep in the soul.
But that independence has been replaced by dependence in many citizens in this nation. It is easy to understand if you consider that people who live in large cities have, over the years; they have had to look to the local government for many services. When the local government failed to meet the promises made, they turned to the Federal government. This is a sad condition in this country. Too many look to the Federal government to be something it was not suppose to be. This dependence led to the Feds ignoring the wishes of the majority and passing a government takeover of the healthcare system. To this day many of those who pushed it through think that the opposition will go away once. They think that they did something good for the people. They've forgotten or never understood the true independent nature of many Americans.
I think it is time to declare a new day of dedication to the freedoms that we have enjoyed. We must take back that spirit that has made this country so great. We must let those who live here but denigrate this nation that we are truly great. I truly believe this is the greatest nation on Earth and anyone who lives here and thinks differently should go to the country that they think is greater. I will not listen to those who would say differently. That includes our current President.
I think that July 5th should be declared End-Dependence Day for America. A day to let those who have been told by the Left Stream Media and those who have surrendered their faith in our country that too many Americans died to defend what we have, just to throw up our hands and give up. Those who love this country are waking to the tyranny that is being forced upon us and realize that things must change. I only hope that we can end the dependence of so many in this country and return to a sovereign nation of laws and freedom.
