The countries had been at war for more than a year due to a number of issues, particularly in regards to harsh taxation and a lack of representation which violated the rights of the colonists. The conflict continued for five more years.1 Here are a few other facts to share as you celebrate America’s independence this year:The United States formally became a free and independent nation in 1783 with the signing of the Treaty of Paris.2Vinegar was an important staple for soldiers fighting in the Continental Army. It made water from creeks, rivers, and lakes more drinkable and added flavor to food. It was also a beneficial antiseptic.3Women fought in the revolution disguised as men. Deborah Sampson, who fought under the alias Robert Shurtliff, was discovered after being injured. She received a pension for her service.4Lots of famous quotes come from the American Revolution, including Patrick Henry’s “Give me liberty or give me death,” and Benjamin Franklin’s “There never was a good war, or a bad peace.”5Many Americans aren’t any happier about paying taxes today than they were back then. Give us a call if you would like to discuss tax-advantaged investing or tax minimization.Sources:1 (Page 240) (or go to )4 offered through “Your B/D Name Here”, Member FINRA/SIPC.This material was prepared by Carson Coaching.

Although he had only been in the colonies for about 14 months, Thomas Paine’s propaganda pamphlet, Common Sense, helped build support for the revolution. Since Paine, a relative newcomer, was unfamiliar with the diverse political, cultural, and economic distinctions of the colonies, he chose to disregard them. Instead, as author Scott Liell put it, Paine: “…Pursued his argument with a ruthless economy, tracing almost every evil in colonial society back to what he saw as the root evil of British rule. In the same way, he argued that almost every benefit to which the colonists might aspire could be achieved only by casting out the British tyrants…”We greatly value what Thomas Paine helped our country achieve. Have a wonderful Independence Day celebration!Sources: : Scott Liell, 46 Pages: Thomas Paine, Common Sense, and the Turning Point to American Independence, 2003Securities offered through “Your B/D Name Here”, Member FINRA/SIPC.This material was prepared by Carson Coaching.

The American Revolutionary War, which began in 1775, continued until 1783 when the British Empire abandoned their claim to the United States. Like the war, the American flag took many years to become what flies so proudly today. Here are some parts of that journey:During the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia on June 14, 1777, the following resolution was adopted:Resolved, that the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field representing a new constellation.The resolution was vague on instructions such as how the stars should be arranged and how many points the stars should have. This caused flags to be created differently across the 13 states with some flags scattering the stars without any specific design and others arranging the stars in rows or circles. The stars were also not consistent as some had six points and others had eight.Elizabeth (Betsy) Ross made flags for over 50 years and is cited as making the first Stars and Stripes although no proof actually exists that hers was the first. Many other patriots created flags for the new Nation as well: Cornelia Bridges and Rebecca Young of Pennsylvania, and John Shaw of Annapolis, Maryland.As new states were added to the Union, a new bill was accepted by President Monroe on April 4, 1818, requiring that the flag of the United States have a union of 20 stars, white on a blue field, and that upon admission of each new State into the Union one star be added to the union of the flag on the fourth of July following its date of admission. The 13 alternating red and white stripes would remain unchanged. By 1912, the stars totaled 48 with the last two stars being added in 1959 (Alaska) and 1960 (Hawaii). Executive Order No. 10834 issued by President Eisenhower on August 21, 1959, created a new arrangement of the 50 stars which became the official flag of the United States which still flies today. The flag was raised for the first time at 12:01 a.m. on July 4, 1960, at the Fort McHenry National Monument in Baltimore, Maryland.This Fourth of July, we hope you and your family enjoy the many freedoms symbolized by our flag.

Where did they find the courage to sever ties with Britain? Here are some thoughts of our Founding Fathers:The ordaining of laws in favor of one part of the nation, to the prejudice and oppression of another, is certainly the most erroneous and mistaken policy. These measures never fail to create great and violent jealousies and animosities between the people favored and the people oppressed… by which the whole state is weakened.–Benjamin Franklin, Emblematical Representations, Circa 1774A government ought to contain in itself every power requisite to the full accomplishment of the objects committed to its care, and to the complete execution of the trusts for which it is responsible, free from every other control, but a regard to the public good and to the sense of the people.–Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 31, January 1, 1788The Revolution was effected before the war commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people. This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people was the real American Revolution.–John Adams, letter to H. Niles, February 13, 1818It is a privilege to live in a country where each individual has the right to enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Toasts were carefully prepared, written down, and submitted to celebration committees for approval. Once approved, they were given to local newspapers for public dissemination. Often, thirteen toasts, one for each of the original colonies, were offered. Here is an example:To the American jubilee. We hail its anniversary with joy.To the Union of the States. May it never be broken by despotic power or aspiring demagogues.To the Constitution of the United States. The American people will never suffer it to be rent for the sake of being patched by political tailors.To the signers of the Declaration of our Independence. The last is gone, but the memory of all live in the hearts of their countrymen.To the Father of his country. The memory of Washington will be cherished by the last son of liberty wherever found.To the Death of Lafayette. The friends of liberty feel, but no tongue can express their grief.To the President of the United States.To the Governor of this Commonwealth.To the Surviving Soldiers of the Revolution. May they die as they have lived, true friends to their country.To agriculture, commerce, and manufacturing. May the fostering hand of government equally extend to three great pillars of national prosperity.To the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. May her sons never degenerate from the patriotism of their fathers.To public schools. May these nurseries of virtue and intelligence be extensively planted and judiciously cultivated.To the fair daughters of creation. The nation is free where they wield their charms for liberty and the rights of men.On Independence Day, we will toast you, our valued clients and friends.

Despite the simple definition, people often disagree about what is patriotic. Here are the thoughts of a few renowned Americans on the subject of patriotism:Americanism means the virtues of courage, honor, justice, truth, sincerity, and hardihood – the virtues that made America.--Teddy RooseveltAbove all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women.--Ronald ReaganTrue patriotism hates injustice in its own land more than anywhere else.--Clarence DarrowWe must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. When the loyal opposition dies, I think the soul of America dies with it.--Edward R. MurrowAmerica will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.--Abraham LincolnYou're not supposed to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who says it.--Malcolm XThe nation is divided, half patriots and half traitors, and no man can tell which from which.--Mark TwainWe hope you will find ways to express your patriotism this Fourth of July and throughout the year.

For example, you may know that California was not always part of the United States. It became a part of our country on February 2, 1848, when Mexico signed the treaty that ended the Mexican War. Soon after peace was agreed, the U.S. military built forts on Alcatraz Island and other locations around San Francisco because they were afraid that Mexico, France, or England might attack. You may not know why. It was because of the Gold Rush. Gold was discovered in California just before the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was signed. Once the discovery became public knowledge—several months later—the United States government was concerned that Mexico or another country would invade California. The Gold Rush helped America become a wealthy country. It also drove our population westward. If you’re interested in building your wealth, come see us. We can help you find opportunities in the marketplace.Securities offered through “Your B/D Name Here”, Member FINRA/SIPC.This material was prepared by Carson Coaching.

He opined that: The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations… It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward for evermore.Yes, that reads July 2. The Second Continental Congress declared the independence of the Thirteen Colonies from Great Britain on July 2, 1776 by passing Lee’s Resolution. So what happened on July 4, 1776? That’s the day the Second Continental Congress formally adopted the Declaration of Independence—a greatly expanded version of the resolution. It was the verbal declaration that took place on July 2 that was thought to be the more memorable occasion at the time, rather than the signing of the document. In fact, members of congress who weren’t present on July 4 were still stopping in to sign the document months later.Securities offered through “Your B/D Name Here”, Member FINRA/SIPC.This material was prepared by Carson Coaching.
