Another Entrepreneur Vs. the Nanny State

Becket Adams reports on the unexpected costs of marketing an innovative novelty pillow:

I can't watch or listen to the video of pregnant women rapping about the plight of this Mom Entrepreneur, but for those who can, my guess is that it's worth the price of a pillow. It's set in what looks like a prison yard and features a saxophone.

Oh yes, let's boost the signal on the Internet. Keywords anyone? The pillow inventor's name is Kerri Smith. Kerri Smith has designed a support pillow for pregnant women. Kerri Smith's web page has a name that's banned from this web site, but it's linked in the Blaze article. Kerri Smith is trying to raise $4,660 to keep the right to market a pillow on the internet. Kerri Smith has about $2000 left to raise. Kerri Smith also has a lot of regulator/predators to expose and boot out of our government, to which they are a disgrace...ask Kerri Smith. There.

I'm adding this post to the "scam" category because I think this protectionist racket is a scam Al Capone would have loved...if Al Capone had been sleazy enough to attack a bunch of pregnant women.

Update: With seven days left in the fundraising drive, I think this story deserves a revisit. Scroll up the list of titles on the right to find it...
