Halloween & the Free Market
The candy is wealth.
The costumes are the uniforms.
The door-to-door trick-or-treating is the work.
The people who give out the wealth for the work do it willingly.
The trick-or-treaters receive as much wealth as they willingly walk from house to house in the cold to get.
Some trick-or-treaters choose to stay home and don't get the goodies.
Some home-owners choose not to participate and don't get the thrill of giving out the candy.
You get what you put in and everybody participates willingly and enjoys it.
Some kids can't get as much candy as others because of sickness, size or disability, and will likely get some charitable sharing from other more capable and nice trick-or-treaters.
Everybody is happy and has a good time.
And then the entitled brats show up and demand candy or they'll egg your house.
(under my breath) Unions!
