Default Re: Government Destroys Young Entrepreneur's Enterprise

And I'll bet that's not the *full* extent of his naughtiness either.

I'll bet he wasn't planning to pay income tax on his 8 bucks either.

Nor hire the correct staff (union shop staff, of course) and pay them the proper award rate of around $32 an hour for working Sundays.

Nor make provision for 12 months fully paid maternity leave in case one of his staff got pregnant. (Gotta protect innocent working folks against these rapacious little capitalists, you know)

Nor hire a proper accountant to do his books.

Nor hire a lawyer to make sure his Terms and Conditions of sale of his flowers were legal.

Nor having a special trust account to withhold part of the funds in case anyone demanded a refund.

I tell ya, these budding entrepreneurs will get away with *anything* if you let them! Especially the 12 year olds, who try and look innocent to cover up that killer-business instinct.

Gotta watch out for 'em and smoke 'em out!

Yay - go the Gummint!!!
