Happy Independance Day!

For all those readers in the US I say Happy Independence Day.

Given recent world events, I have paused to marvel at how amazing our forefathers were. It seems like very few countries today, living under oppressive rule, are successful in taking their country from such rulers and setting up such a free, stable and liberating society all by themselves.

Sure we got some very small help from other countries, but by and large, American freedom was bought by Americans. There was no "other countries" removing dictators for us, "other countries" bringing us stability, "other countries" making a conducive environment so we can set up a successful government.

Note to world: We did it ourselves! And are still the greatest, richest, most free and stable country in the world today. I am proud to be an American.
