Assholes Are About To Backtrack Again Due To Publicity
Happens a lot now. Common sense over ruled, firestorm of ridicule, my bad.
Tax collector tries to squash Lewiston family's pumpkin stand
"LEWISTON, Idaho (AP) -- A Lewiston, Idaho family that's operating a pumpkin stand is scared out of its gourd after a state tax collector showed up and tried to squash the business.
The Lewiston Tribune reports the Idaho State Tax Commission has called for the closure of a family's pumpkin stand in this mill city along the Snake and Clearwater rivers.
Dan and Kami Charais told the newspaper that a Tax Commission employee informed them the stand was in violation of laws and had to shut its doors.
The couple says their 4- and 6-year-old children had been carving out a niche for themselves in the local jack-o-lantern market -- to raise money for school sports, they say.
A Tax Commission representative in Boise told The Associated Press it's gathering information but declined to immediately comment."

Are they serious? The government is clamping down on children, now?
Oh man, you bet levelheaded101, much easier for officials to go after soft targets than banksters who steal billions. It's why cops pull over dark skinned drivers rather than pink skinned, or bust you for a few buds rather than go after fraudulant banks. What they don't want is the publicity over these stunts.
