July 4th is always a bittersweet holiday for me. While I like the idea America was founded on, it serves as a constant reminder of how far we've strayed from our founding principles. We've gone from a limited gov't with few and defined powers and having 100% liberty to having the biggest, most powerful state apparatus the world has ever seen and rapidly approaching having no liberty at all. We should be mourning the loss of freedom today. This is no cause for celebration.
