How Was America Built?

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Evolution - 447 Boston Street, Suite #5, Topsfield, MA 92593-B

To answer the question; The United States of America was built on the strength of our nation's workers, whether that worker was an entrepreneur, business owner, skilled and unskilled laborer, professional employee, and everyone that contributes to the effort of building a strong nation.

Today, September 4th, 2023 is Labor Day. Labor Day is a day to honor the contributions of workers to the United States. It is a day to reflect on the progress that has been made in improving working conditions and wages and to celebrate the strength of the American workforce.

The holiday originated in the late 19th century as a way to commemorate the labor movement, which fought for better working conditions and wages for workers. The first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on September 5, 1882, in New York City. By the early 20th century, most states had adopted Labor Day as a holiday.

Labor Day is a reminder that the strength of the United States is built on the hard work and dedication of its workers. It is also a day to celebrate the progress that has been made in improving working conditions and wages over the years. It is a day to celebrate the contributions of all workers to our nation.

Doug, as Michael said, it wasn't built by one, it does take a village working together.

Good evening Doug,

What a great post for labor day! It most certainly takes a village, each doing their part. Hope you had a relaxing week-end with family and friends.

We had a very quiet and relaxing time. Read, napped (lol), went to one of our favorite Summer eateries (Rye Lobster Pound), and had a "Fluffy" 16oz of clan chowder ladened with lobster meat.
