Lemonade Freedom Day

Actually, it is. But it shouldn’t be.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

Markie Marxist sez: “We Marxists own America and we don’t allow lemonade stands! We can’t have children learning to be capitalists! Now, if they want to pretend that they’re running a government agency in California and sending jackbooted SWAT teams with fully automatic weapons to enforce milk and cheese regulations, then that’s just fine. Maybe we can even put something in the next stimulus package to fund that. We might even let them ‘borrow’ a real SWAT team, so that they can get a feel for enforcing totalitarian oppression. But no lemonade stands! They’re just not common communist sense. Junior capitalists? Egads! What a horrible thought! On the other hand, maybe we can tax them at 110% of their profits and thus condition them to fork over everything they make and then some to the state. Hmmm . . .”
