The 4th of July means nothing.

I have had this on my mind for at least decade. I am an American. I do not feel free. July 4th is supposed to celebrate our freedom from a monarch, free from control. I have not felt free for over more than a Decade. I can not do the things I want to do because of the mistreated economy. I can not get proper Health care within a reasonable bill cost. It costs less to buy a ticket to Europe, get surgery, and return back home, and still be under the total bill if I were to do the same in the United States. This should not even be possible. Almost every job in the U.S. does not pay enough to be comfortable for healthcare or even basic needs. It does not matter the state or job. Nothing is being done about it. No one is talking about it.…


I have had this on my mind for at least decade. I am an American. I do not feel free. July 4th is supposed to celebrate our freedom from a monarch, free from control. I have not felt free for over more than a Decade. I can not do the things I want to do because of the mistreated economy. I can not get proper Health care within a reasonable bill cost. It costs less to buy a ticket to Europe, get surgery, and return back home, and still be under the total bill if I were to do the same in the United States. This should not even be possible. Almost every job in the U.S. does not pay enough to be comfortable for healthcare or even basic needs. It does not matter the state or job. Nothing is being done about it. No one is talking about it. No one in the U.S. is willing to admit this extreme problem. This a problem that has been going on before I was born. It goes back to the 50's, even before that. NO ONE IN THE U.S. is willing to address this huge issue, even those born before me. I am sick of it. Right now my neighborhood is “celebrating”.

I am making this post because I am willing to say publicly that we are not doing the best for our country as a whole for decades. I am openly addressing our problem. I am making this post because I'm sick and tired of all the pretending that everything is ok. To be blunt, and kindly, The holiday July 4th pisses me off because it is no longer true to its original meaning. It has not been true since I've been alive. This is why I do not Celebrate the 4th of July in America.

I want it to be true. It has become a joke to me. I will not celebrate something that is not true. I will not pretend that everything is okay. I am already thinking about moving to another country, Because I am done.
