NEW YORK -- Country Time is doubling down on its campaign to save one of America's favorite summer past times - children's lemonade stands.

The drink maker has been paying fines for kids across the country who have had their unpermitted stands shut down.

Now the company has a new website that shows where stands are legal, and directs visitors to where they can lobby their local lawmakers.

Lemonade stands are currently allowed without permits in just 15 states.

WE got here.......because people are not attentive to the larger picture.....global or local, does not matter.....

I love the video showing the boy who decided to profit by selling beers for a $1 each. His neighbors called the police on him. The police promptly inspected his cooler and bought a couple of IBC root beers that day. Smart kid, got plenty of press and made money misrepresenting his goods for sale.
