The story was fine, but this line “Word gets around and as a result increasing numbers of customers flood into Heidi’s bar.” should have read,
“The city government decides that they are concerned that the homeless cannot also get drinks put on their tab just as the regular customers are doing. They pressure Heidi into providing expensive drinks to the homeless as well as her regular paying customers.”
Maybe the German version of the ACLU should sue to insure the rights of the homeless to participate. Illegals too.
Good point.
