Somewhere on this long thread, a FReeper suggested that we Americans have a day without American gringo work day. That we all stay home from work on July 3rd to show the business what it would really be like without us.

I think that's worth considering. July 3rd falls on a Monday. That would be a 4 day break for the 4th of July celebration. What better way to show our patriotism.

All I know is we better do something to counter this tide that's turning in our country before it's too late.

That's a great idea...except many many places do have that day off already as a holiday.

And, given how apathetic so many Americans are.....I'm not too optimistic that any of them would even bother....they're so unwilling to be disturbed but will be the loudest to complain when they finally wake up from their stupor....and find it's way too late.
