Independence Day.

I look at independence day as a great concept that the state coopted and corrupted. To me it's not the celebration of the formation of the US government, it's a celebration of a group of people getting together to declare independence from a tyrannical government. That the same group later formed a shiny new tyrannical government was an insult to the independence that they had fought for, and a cautionary tale for those of us who seek to wrest power from the current oligarchy.
