This week, citizens of the United States will be gathering with friends and family to celebrate the country's 243rd birthday. In typical fashion, the majority will be partaking in barbecues and watching fireworks, but an increasing amount will be eschewing the celebrations altogether. Here, we take a look at consumers' plans for the holiday and the state of patriotism in America.
