A couple of recent stories reminded me of the time my brothers and I had a grape slushy stand when we were kids.
The outcomes of these two stories are a little different than that of ours. While we were lucky enough to get a simple write-up in the local paper, these other children were threatened with fines and asked to shut down operations by the government. Kids (and businesses) stay the same, but government reach continues to grow.
Please vote today for candidates that believe in fiscal responsibility, constitutionally limited government, and free markets, and who understand that a child’s lemonade stand is simply none of the government’s business.
