There will be NO Labor Day parade in NYC or on Long Island in 2007. There will be plenty of events, sponsored by towns and villages, with a labor day in their title. There will be small business men promoting carnivals, fairs, feasts & anything else on which a buck can be made, in the name of labor.There will be labor day sales at stores and shopping malls, all over. And there will be lots and lots of BBQ’s, at the vast majority of which, Labor will never be mentioned. Organized Labor is taking the day OFF.  Is this OK with you. Don’t be surprised, if in the near future, the name “Labor Day” is changed to “End of the Summer Holiday”. What else will change with the name?
