A crowd of several hundred patriotic Americans gathered on the steps of the historic Kentucky State Capitol this July 4th to protest. There were many issues represented, but the main issues were excessive government spending, huge deficits, high taxes and government intrusion into our daily lives. A boisterous crowd from all walks of life listened to patriotic music and applauded speeches. Many felt the country has taken a hard left turn towards socialism under President Obama and the current Congressional leadership.
