take a look and comment!
if nothing else,
everything is either political or economic!
the festivity of dressing up kids, & bringing chocolates and candies to kids is what it simmered down to, which, considered everything else in predominantly christian - european/caucasian history, past or present, is not a bad thing.

Big time scam by dentists and candy companies
Re: history of holloween
yes, this is what the corporate america is all about.
defense and pharmaceutical industries are other two diabolical agents of misery in the world, introduced & sustained by the money mongers in this country, who will do anything to get easy money, even if it means, killing scores of people, ruthlessly.

^ Dush,
You are right and I agree with you on that.
Re: history of holloween
yeah kill the kids by letting them dress up and have fun 
Re: history of holloween
no, but there are incidences each holoween, where people get carried away and do rather really gory things.
there is a difference between having fun and causing harm on purpose.
