Hate to add to the dumping on Texas, but here are police shutting down a 7-year-old's lemonade stand. "Cuz the law is the law..." When exactly did America abandon common sense in favor of hard laws?
I guess this is why JB and his other friend here a couple years back (Verbster, I think) didn't believe me when I said one could open a restaurant in Japan for a few bucks and minimum hassle. They found something on the internet and assumed that was more valid than my first-hand experience. I guess, they also assumed that laws were applied the same way as they are in the US, without any sense or perspective.

This sort of thing kills entrepreneurial spirit at the grassroots level. And makes criminals of them, to boot. And always, the "law is the law" is the excuse. It's really not substantially different from "I was just following orders."
