[quote=Anonymous]And from another article: A more wholesome American scene could hardly be imagined: a bunch of kids selling lemonade on a summer's day. But local authorities in Montgomery County, Md., saw things differently. They shut down the kids' venture and ended up fining their parents $500. The Marriott and Augustine kids had set up their stand Thursday right next to the Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland, where the U.S. Open golf tournament has been taking place--bringing thousands of thirsty fans to the neighborhood. The kids planned to send 50 percent their profits to a charity that fights pediatric cancer. But a Montgomery County inspector said the children needed a vendors' license to run the stand, according to a report from local TV station WUSA9. And after the stand proprietors allegedly ignored a few warnings, the inspector slammed the kids' parents with a $500 fine.[/quote]
