Crap video, but I agree with its message.

In the faraway days of my youth, noone had even heard of this 'Trick or Treat' nonsense. We'd seen ET.... so we had a vague idea.

Now, this stupid, commercial American Halloween 'concept' has taken off everywhere. These Yanks just want all the poor kids in the world to match their own childrens' obesity levels to assuage their consciences.

Ooooh but the starving kids in Africa, THEY don't appear to count!!!

American businesses seem to thrive on grabbing a perhaps Pagan festival eg All Hallows, or Christian (arguably Pagan) event like Christmas, and commercialising it to within an inch of it's life. For profit.

Doesn't this attitude take the fun, and possibly if you're into it, the sprirituality out of these festivals?

'To disagree with three-fourths of the British public is one of the first requisites of sanity'.
