1. For those of you who are free market/low tax fans, here is a great article on the real meaning of Thanksgiving by John Stossel:

I love the story about how the Pilgrims started out farming as collectivists, and almost starved. But then they divided the land up, so that each household got what they produced. Production went way up and the famine ended, and this lead to the first thanksgiving.

Socialism kills.

Be thankful for property rights and free markets. Be thankful for your own labor and the abundance it has achieved. Celebrate your own achievement!
