Of course, there will be much public sympathy for this little girl
with a mini-enterprise selling lemonade . More pernicious is the idea
that the state is not needed to check on private enterprise.
We live in the golden age of the swindler. And corrupt CEOs
are indeed a menace to public health and public wealth. As a democratic
socialist I would not blindly trust ANY for profit enterprise.
And lemonade is no exception. Presently I wish I could get some coffee
in my Dunkin Donuts ice coffee. And more soap in that Dial Soap. How
pure is the water in Poland Spring Water ?
The state
should also be honest about how much lead is in our tap water. Why can't
poor people drink clean , healthy water ?
