To have a holiday in the name of Veterans and then give paid holidays to others that did not serve is a disrespect to the Veterans and the holiday itself. The fact that Veterans work that day, if they have to, in order to generate tax dollars so that city, state, and federal employees can have a day off is wrong. College students, banks and many others celebrate this day having never served. This holiday should soley be given to honorably discharged veterans. In order to correct this wrong, Veterans should be given the holiday off paid, or no longer allow the above stated this day off.
