Evidently the news is declaring it....emigrant day, I believe the implication is that it is "cheap labor that drives down wages day"...not a very communist concept :evil: Boooo, on USA and worker exploitation day. When I was a kid this was the day to celebrate spring change (more of a Pagan celebration)...you were supposed to make baskets of wild flowers and leave them on neighbors doors to celebrate season change...I liked that better.

Isn't labour day the ironically named holiday when Americans get a day off work?

Interesting fact: May Day in it's modern form as a day for workers originated in the US! :D

Vive le Revolution!
