There is no free lemonade

The business ethos thing is getting out of hand when little kids are berated for giving away lemonade. But - apparently in all seriousness - that is exactly what Chicago Sun-Times columnist Terry Savage did this week. "If we can't teach our kids the basics of running a lemonade stand," he complains, "how can we ever teach Congress the basics of economics?" we could begin, I guess, by allowing that there are other values in life than making money - and that giving strangers cold lemonade on a hot day is one of the higher purposes in life, not the sign of social decay.
