Independence day, not just from England, but from tyranny. Not that England was particularly tyrannical, but any government has the potential to be so. In fact, if left unchecked, all government will become tyrannical if the people are not vigilant. It is only natural that those in power will want more power. Those in power some times forget, or tries to forget, or lies otherwise, that the power to govern comes only from those governed. The American people asserted this before, and if necessary, will do so again.
Thus, I wish us all a Happy Independence Day today and ever more.
