A Stitch in Time Saves Nine...But Haste Makes Waste

On Santa's Butt
(Why aren't you reading this at the new website?)

---
So let me get this straight:

Santa's Butt is a no-no...


...but Santa's butt is perfectly okay.





Go figure.

Of course, such is the glory of capitalism: those who like pooping Santas can buy them; those who don't need not. No central planners, no nanny-staters, no taxpayer subsidies. And if Santa's Butt is not popular, then it will, eventually, go away. Good stuff sells, crap (no pun intended) doesn't. No central planning required.

UPDATE: The Maine regulators capitulated and will allow the Santa's Butt beer label after an assistant attorney general advised them that the label was likely protected by the First Amendment.
