MOST LIKE TO SECEDE: Happy July 4th/7th - Independence (SECESSION) Days!

Americans celebrate the 4th of July as the official "Declaration of Independence/Secession" from the British Empire - the most corrupt, centralized and bloated of its time.
More and more Vermonters are also celebrating the 7th of July as the official "Vermont Independence Day," when the first Vermont Constitution was accepted in 1777, creating Vermont as an independent republic (1777-1791.)
And perhaps, may be again someday.

Depending on people’s various perspectives, this was either a long time coming or a burst, unexpected and almost precipitous, of commitment put into action – commitment to the principle that Vermonters have principles, that they needn’t and shouldn’t continue to allow those principles to be subsumed by something gargantuan: a corporately and militarily dominated global empire.

I suppose my favorite moment in the oil-spewing fracas that’s dominated our nation’s all-too-readily dominated attention over the past months was the moment I first heard that BP might attempt to stanch the flow with a slurry of shredded tires and discarded golf balls. The so-called “junk shot.”
