There's nothing like 'not working' on labor day.

So, am I the only one who kind of finds it interesting that, throughout the whole ridiculous drama of our President struggling to have to make speech at same time of an NFL pregame show this coming week, it was never considered that maybe he should make his speech on 'labor day'?
Maybe some small group of political morons.....i mean thinkers..... sat in a room, and decided that maybe it would be too ironic, or maybe even condescending in some way, to make a big speech about the job market on 'labor day', while many watching at home remain unemployed.
Well for me, speaking as a man lucky enough ( I guess ) to have a job, I for one am probably in the same boat as many working Americans.  Fellow Americans who are happy to be able to pay off their bills each month, but remain challenged in their owner inner quest to maintain sanity while performing professional tasks they wished they weren't doing.
And so comes the wonderful idea/concept of 'labor day', the holiday that it has become.  And apparently, we have made such a holiday a yearly event of sorts.  We have turned this 'holiday' into a day filled with bar-b-q, beer, and thoughts of how quickly the pending 4 day work week could possibly fly by if we're lucky.
Maybe this day should have been filled with the idea and concept of 'change'.  Maybe this day should have been filled with information, technology, and knowledge that would lead to bigger and better things for our country as a whole........Or maybe I should just stick to the beer, wings, and hope of a short work week (while I still have a job).
