Syrup Smugglers Take on the Maple Mafia:
https://fee.org/articles/syrup-smugglers-take-on-the-maple-mafia/

() O Canada – the land of moose and snow, where the drugs are cheap, the people are notoriously nice, and the maple syrup farmers are clapped in irons.

Apparently it is unacceptable for a person to take something from a tree – A. Tree. – put it in a bucket, turn it into magic-tasting sugar, and give it to someone else in exchange for monies, without a government-mandated middle man swooping in on a snowmobile to take most of the sugar, some of the monies, and all of the credit.

My Commentary: The North American economy can be called a lot of things… “Free market” is NOT one of them!

(Sarah Halzack) Target said Wednesday it is preparing to spend $20 million in the coming months to add single-stall bathrooms along with men’s and women’s restrooms in its stores, a move meant to accommodate shoppers who have expressed concern about the retailers’ policy of allowing customers and employees to use the bathroom that corresponds to the gender they identify with.

“Some of our guests clearly are uncomfortable with our policy, and some are really supportive,” said Cathy Smith, Target’s chief financial officer, in a conference call wither reporters.

My Commentary: Well, well, well… The exact easy solution I suggested in my article on the topic is now being implemented, wide-scale, by the least-expected company…

A free-market win, either way!

The following correspondence originally took place on my Facebook wall, upon my post , “Home Businesses Continue to Be Disenfranchised By State Extortion Racket“…

Dennise Cruz is being extorted by the State of Texas for selling homemade food to her neighbors

Rayn: Only government and big business can create jobs, lady! What are you? Too lazy to get REAL one, or something? What if everyone were to just start providing services to their neighbors without being extorted with licensing and permit fees, and without being weighed down by a host of arbitrary restrictions to peaceful activity? It would be ANARCHY!

(Matt Agorist) Carrollton, TX — In modern day police state, USA, exchanging goods and services is a crime unless the state gets their cut. So, even though a Carrollton mother was “stunned” to find a warrant issued for her arrest for selling tamales to her neighbors — it was to be expected.

This week, Dennise Cruz was shocked to receive a yellow postcard from the City of Carrollton stating that if she doesn’t immediately submit to their extortion demands, then she would be kidnapped and locked in a cage.

“That has to be wrong. I don’t have any tickets under my name. That’s just my first reaction. Never would have I thought, tamales,” said Cruz in an interview with CBS DFW. “To know that somebody can be arrested over that, that to me is unbelievable.”.

Now, pay the penalty for you “crime,” or go to directly to jail!

BREAKING: DEA Proves Loyalty to Big Pharma, Maintains Cannabis Has “No Medicinal Value”:
http://thefreethoughtproject.com/dea-refuses-reschedule-cannabis/

(Jay Syrmopoulos) The federal government has once again revealed itself as nothing more than puppets to the big pharma industry. On Thursday, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) moved to deny any changes to marijuana under its federal drug schedule, keeping the drug in the most restrictive category for U.S. law enforcement purposes.

For decades the pharmaceutical industry has poured millions into the pockets of corrupt politicians as they lobbied to keep cannabis illegal. As the Free Thought Project reported last month, a new study from the University of Georgia shows exactly why all that money was spent. Legal marijuana destroys big pharma’s profits.
