Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.
My own thoughts on it:
It marks the unnofficial end to summer in the U.S.A. and is part of a list of holidays included in the "Monday Holiday Bill" that sanctions three day weekends for (unfortunately and ironically) the class of employed people who do not actually perform a lot of labor... ouch!

The 4th is not a holiday, but the first Monday of September is Labor Day.... it just happens to be the 4th this year.

Today is an official US holiday. It is Labor Day. Labor day is on the first Monday in Sept.
There should be no banks open, no government offices...

It is the day when more women give birth then any other day of the year. Hence the name Labor Day.
Peace!
