How come most of our USA holidays revolve around eating, instead of what they are truly for?

What is the point of having a bank holiday?

I read that the UK had a bank holiday today. What does closing the banks for one day a month actually acomplish? Why don’t we have any in the USA?
England have 8 per year so its APPROXIMATELY once a month
someone doesn’t understand approximations. 8 bank holidays with 12 months means that 75% of the time a month should have a bank holiday.

Working holidays USA for Australians?

I am planing on travelling to the USA next year and i am now starting to consider a working holiday.
I know that Australia has an agreement with the USA for working holidays but you need to have a sponsor.
I know that there are programs out there to help you organise jobs and what not but they aren’t cheap so i dont want to go ahead with something if its not good. So does anybody have any experience with working holidays in the usa, in particular if you are an Australia, could you please give me any advice, eg. who you went through to organise it and all that.
Thanks.

Should the USA just cancel the Christmas Holiday & just celebrate Hanukah instead…?

Canceling Christmas would make all the gays, Jews, Atheist and Muslims happy

No one seems to be complaining about Hanukah, so we should just make Hanukah a national holiday. I would still get my vacation.

is Halloween an American Holiday? and why do christian evangelicals celebrate this?

if some evangelicals say it’s against the Bible the celebration of halloween, sometimes I have read evangelicals in USA change the meaning of the holiday for another, pagan or not but it’s against the christianity in general?

When is the cheapest time to fly to the USA from Australia?

Hi,

I’d like to know when is the off peak season to travel to the USA from Australia. I’ve been trying to find cheap tickets sometime after their summer and before their thanksgiving holiday, but the prices seem to be the same as summer time. Also, if you could recommend any airlines/websites that you know currently has a sale, that would be great :) Thanks!

Can visitors to the USA get a refund of taxes paid during vacations?

Does anyone know if visitors to the USA can get a refund of the taxes they’ve paid during their vacation – like reimbursement at the border as they leave the country or something? The UK and Australia have similar systems and I’m wondering if the US do. I’m planning to go for a 3-4 week holiday next year and am curious. I’m not a US citizen (obviously).
