Q:
A: Independence Day is important because it allows millions of Americans to display not only their ignorance about their true history and the history of democracy throughout the world, but it also re-invigorates their belief in life, taking liberties and the pursuit of happy pills. (Bubbles: Lots of countries, including the one above the US, got their independence from Britain without unilaterally declaring independence. Retired: I think you'll find that 'driving on the right' occurred over a century after the declaration of independence when Pennsylvania became the first state to adopt this bit of Napoleonic innovation.)
