Labor Day began as a celebratory parade thrown by the Knights of Labor, a socialist organization for union workers in New York City. The Socialist Party itself already had a May Day (May 1st) tradition, and the Knights adapted it to their own purposes in the 1880's, deciding to always use the first Monday in September for their communism jamboree.
What is worthy of celebration is every time a union thug loses their job. That is worthy of dancing in the streets!
