Government Officials Shut Down Lemonade Stand
Associated Press: “Mim Murray, 10, and Marisa Miller-Stockie, 12, of St. Louis, have sold lemonade together for three summers, hoping to save enough for laptop computers before school starts. But the girls said a Health Department inspector told them Tuesday they didn’t have the proper business licenses and were selling unsafe ice cubes. The girls were using powdered lemonade mix with ice cubes bought from a store.”
Eventually, after the media took notice, and the city’s health commissioner said “that temporary food and beverage vendors are supposed to obtain permits, but that doesn’t apply to children’s lemonade stands” and the stand reopened.

Isn’t it amazing how anyone ever survived without this type of government idiot?
These are the same people telling folks with AIDS to trust condoms to save themselves from deadly infections and yet they’re worried about ice cubes.
It boggles the mind.
