Why is everything closed on Xmas as opposed to other holidays?

What makes Xmas the big special holiday as opposed to all others? Most places are closed all day on Xmas. But you don't really see that for any other holidays (thanksgiving, Easter, NY day, etc.).

If it makes you feel any better, just a few short years ago (almost) everything used to be closed on Thanksgiving, too, so you might not have to worry about this for too much longer.

Maybe the country needs a single holiday for everyone to take a break? It is only one day.

Anyone know what BR bars are open? Haven't been in BR on Christmas in a while.

Would you feel better if everything was open on Christmas and closed on Martin Luther King Day?

It's a tradition with significant meaning to most Americans whether the meaning is based on a Christian faith or just spending time with loved ones. We used to treat other holidays like thanksgiving with the same respect if you will. We may soon treat Christmas like those holidays but I don't see why one would advocate doing so...
...in short...it's the last real national holiday standing...can't we just leave it alone...everyone has to find some injustice in everything...

Could you give an example of things that are closed on Christmas that aren't closed on Thanksgiving or New Years? I don't ever really go out looking for things on any of those days.
