New York state shuts down child's lemonade stand
"A 7-year-old lemonade stand operator has been put out of business by the New York State Health Department.
The shutdown occurred after vendors at a nearby county fair complained he was undercutting their price, according to the New York Post.
The young entrepreneur, Brendan Mulvaney, was selling lemonade, water and Sno-cones from the porch of his family’s home, which just so happens to be right outside the Saratoga County Fair in upstate New York.
A woman wearing a Health Department T-shirt turned up Friday and shut it down because the family didn’t have a permit.
Officials have gone back and forth on the issue, first saying the Health Department doesn’t regulate lemonade stands and even issuing an apology."
