How to kill Capitalism, Step One

Threaten fines on kids selling water on the street.

Yes, that's right - kids acting as entrepreneurs are being threatened with fines for selling water to passing motorists.

Milwaukee officials claim they're concerned about the kids' safety, but I'm thinking that's the concern of the parents, not the government.  One parent in the story actually acted responsibly, keeping his kid safe - good for him.  The rest of the parents should take a lesson here.

And remember folks - you get the government you deserve.
