GOVERNMENT GOBLINS DRIVING UP THE PRICE OF CANDY
The debate over taxpayer-funded sugar subsidies has always been near and dear to this website’s heart. It’s one of those appallingly simple litmus test issues politicians either pass … or (in the case of rising “Republican” star Marco Rubio) fail.
Seriously, it’s simple: They’re either for the free market … or not.
Indeed, it was Rubio’s support for these market-distorting handouts that first clued us into the fact he wasn’t the real deal … a suspicion he has repeatedly confirmed by selling out on bigger issues like immigration and Obamatrade.
Anyway …
Our friends at Americans for Limited Government – who have been exposing the sugar subsidy scam for years – have a nifty video up featuring a trio of Trick-or-Treaters (we’re guessing Katniss Everdeen, Maximus the Gladiator and Neo from The Matrix) doing battle against crony capitalist zombies.
Enjoy …

Are you going to be shocked to find out the Senator from Florida is Pro-Oranges and Pro-Tourism also?

But what is his position on Grapefruit? My supply must never be interrupted! One of my sweethearts could not tolerate the aroma of grapefruit, and would not allow it in her house. One night after hitting a few parties, I waited for her to undress for bed. The grapefruit was removed from my briefcase, halved, and I ascended the stairs to her waiting arms — and her firm breasts begging for my attention. I squashed and squished them on her breasts, and then the fun began. She humiliated me into licking every bit of juice and pulp off of her. (sigh),,
One of my most storied antics was the party I threw with the “Naked Tequila girl” The booze pooled in her belly button and salt / lime juice was applied to other areas . Everything went great until one drunk spilled lime “south of the border”, setting things on fire. With quick thinking, I cunningly :-) provided first aid, carefully washing and rinsing the affected area in my shower.
Taz, you da’ man! (I can’t stop laughing!)
My favorite was my big breasted, dancing cutie pie. Wearing three hardhats and a thong. The clacking noises over the music had everyone in tears! Sometimes i just get struck with inspiration. I made her put her tips in the more beer budget.
that’s just too hilarious! how did you get folks to go home?
Usually the sun had to come up, or the cops show up. I always made sure to include Sheriff’s deputies in my invites to keep the legendary corrupt fat ass city jackasses off my case. that particular city dept made the national news for having KKK members on it’s force. That county maybe had a dozen fat and stupid white haters in the “KKK” and half worked for Fruitland Park PD. I’m embarrassed to even tell people I used to live there a few years. Made you feel like you were dropping IQ points by breathing the same air.
Give ’em some chocolate Ex-Lax and be done with it
I bought bags of toys from Cromer’s to give out — a big hit with the kiddies! — cheaper than candy and it’s something that lasts for weeks. You can have fun just looking at the choices at Cromer’s — I always kept some for myself.
It’s a shame that kids can’t enjoy home-baked goodies anymore……
So true. I didn’t stop trick or treating till 13 when a treat resource asked,Aren’t you too old for this?
My late grandmother ran out of candy once,and did the ex-lax thing-simpler times..
My German mother-in-law was disappointed that she couldn’t bake little cakes and cookies and other treats for the kids. One year I gave noisemakers (whistles/tooters/duck calls/ etc.) and I caught hell for three weeks from other parents because they were being driven insane. (heh!) (heh!)
That became some candy-assed (pun intentional) shit since they quit putting phenolphthalien in it. Nowadays, I doubt it would move a duck’s bowels.
