11 year old who would rather work for what she wants than beg for donations
« on: December 13, 2013, 12:04:38 PM »
This young lady was trying to earn money for her braces, I think, by selling mistletoe she picked in a city park.

The was told she could not sell with out a vendors license, but she could sit and beg for money there.

She didn't like that and raised enough of a stink that the mayor of Portland is looking into the law that prevented her from working.

Megyn Kelly interviews her here:

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
