Oh man, I can only cover so much. I'm trying to trace a pattern not fill in every detail. I already regret not mentioning the Great Railroad Strike or the Haymarket riot during the Gilded Age.
To the first question, I'd say possibly yes, possibly no. The variable of the British crown's response to the colonies' hypothetical dispassion (which would come about ... how?) makes it impossible to say.
To the second question, sure, but it isn't only that. Alas, it's a good and evil reaction to a good and evil situation. The real question is how it relates to the Russian 4th of July, for the Royal Family was executed by the Bolsheviks on that date (o.s.) in 1918. I don't think there's a simple answer to that, but it is a revealing correlation. Have a happy 4th!
But it gets better, doesn't it?
Well, it gets more progressive. The Gilded Age is followed by the Progressive Era. Does progressive count as better?
Depends on who you ask. : ) Do you pick up on the thymos and epithymia of deflationary and inflationary economics?

That's OK. This is flowing very well at this level I think.
Had the 18th century Americans achieved dispassion, would they have been ought to declare Independence?
Is the 4th of July a holiday in which we celebrate America’s communal θυμός via indulging our personal έπιθυμια?
