I'm suprised that you would go trick or treating Jimmy. Isn't it just a version of Socialism with costumes? Come on. Going from house to house in a nice neighborhood asking for people to give you something for nothing?

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

good point, however in my family, we dont call it trick or treating, we call it "democrating". We go around the neighborhood looking for handouts.

I then charge my kids a "tax" be eating 35-40% of their haul. Since we are nearing a democratic administration, I'll be eating 60% of their candy if they bring in over 250 pieces. I want them to be penalized for working harder.
