LESSON OF THE LEMONADE STAND

SPECIAL POST

Eight-year-old Akirah Nyberg and her father of Saint Paul Park, Minnesota, built a lemonade stand.  When the family was off visiting her grandmother, someone stole the 100-poiund lemonade stand from their front yard.  Therein begins the point of today's post.  

Whenever some enterprising person in this country has a goal to achieve and sets out to reach that goal, some liberal, left-wing scumbag comes along and tries to steal the idea, steal the whole project and/or steal the money.  They just can't stomach seeing someone else's success and would much rather destroy another person's dream than to strive to attain their own.  They want to tax the successful businessman into oblivion, deny the baker's right to make an honest living, or make the licensing requirements so restrictive that no business can even get off the ground.  

They are so full of envy and greed themselves that they can't see the forest through the trees.  

Thank God for the good people in this country.  The owner of the St. Paul Saloon, Nicolas Heidenreich and some of his patrons got together and built Akirah a new lemonade stand.  

Now, I assume, the parents of the scum who stole the first stand will be out demanding that the girl get a tax identification number, a business license, a health certificate and that she and her stand meet zoning restrictions.  You would think that the beneficial lessons here would be the value of teaching the young girl about business and money, and that there are good people out there who want to help each other succeed.  

Unfortunately, the real lesson here is that the country is full of self-serving scum who don't have any concept of the word "good."  And they, my friends, unfortunately end up being the politicians in charge of the rest of us.  

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
