Who agrees this has to be one of the DUMBEST things the legal system ever came up with? Busting a bunch of kids for having unlicensed lemonade stands, the permits cost $50, lemonade is 25 cents a glass, do these moronic cops have any idea how many years they'd have to sell lemonade to pay for a permit? Seriously.

same thing happened to me for selling soft pretzels-- only i did have the permit, but the best spot closest to my house was the border for my town and i got busted for being one traffic light on the wrong side of the town line!
And they wonder why shoplifting by children/teens is on the rise? Why they are not motivated to do anything but play video games? hmmm

A 10 year old kid is supposed to come up with $50 for a permit to sell $.50 lemonade on a hot sidewalk?
Remember when life used to be so much more simple?

Indeeeeeed! When I was a kid and we had our yearly garage sales, I sold lemonade and ice tea at the table where we took the money and made change, and I'd make about $8 or $13, no permits needed back then which was only about 13 years ago.

No, their parents are. These are just the kids who haven't learned they have to bribe the cops. Free lemonade with vodka Wake up and smell the graft, kids.
