When it comes to national holidays of political significance, Independence Day is the granddaddy of them all!
It’s a day for parades, barbeques and of course, fireworks!
But over the last few years there has been a disturbing trend of businesses remaining open and capitalizing on the celebration.
It’s free enterprise and I support a business’s right to choose to open whenever they want. But I feel for all of the employees that are forced to consider the Fourth of July as just another day.
My only viable way to protest is to NOT support any store or restaurant today. That’s part of the free market formula as well.
But the fact is that these stores open up because people go there and it’s profitable.
And as long as there are customers, more and more businesses will jump on the bandwagon!
