| More Info | On August 20 2011, Liberty activists from several regions will meet on the West lawn of the nations capitol in Washington DC from 12pm to 3pm to sell lemonade. The simple childhood act of setting up a lemonade stand is no longer safe from the reaches of our overbearing monolithic government. The state does not want children taught how to run their own business or succeed without the help of the state. This was evidenced in Georgia when three girls had their summer dreams of raising money from a lemonade stand crushed by the state for not "providing a proper permit." http://www.youtube.com/wat We are here to stand in solidarity against this monolithic monster that calls itself the US government. We do not need your permission for something that is a fundamental right. The right to buy and sell is inherent, self evident, and something no man, no matter their uniform has the right to take away from us. So on August 20th we will stand as free men and women in front of the government's front yard and set up our own lemonade stand. If you can not make it to the nation's capitol to do this in "their front yard" then do so whereever you are. Peacefully and happilly assert yourself as a free person who does not need the state's permission to buy or sell. We will peacefully sell lemonade for a 10 cents a cup for all who consent to purchase. We will treat no person poorly in doing so. Nonetheless if we are apprehended by " law enforcement" aka the state, we are fully prepared to go to jail and turn this into an act of civil disobidience. To all who do not wish to be arrested, don't worry you can still partake in the fun, just stand on the side bring a video camera or a simple 10 cents and enjoy a refreshing cup of lemonade on a warm summers day. |
