The reason boy scouts as an organization are irrelevant is that they learn basket-weaving. Meanwhile, their cousin organization sets sales records. Who are you going to hire as your CEO -- a kid who can survive a night in the wilderness or a girl who uses Excel spreadsheets to maximize Thin Mint sales per block? The girl scouts will sell so many cookies this year they will exacerbate the recession among companies that make all other food products. However, their excessive sales will then in turn stimulate the fitness center industry. So really, the net effect on the economy will be neutral.
Girl scouts don’t sell cookies on the side -- these are cookie salespeople who freelance as girl scouts.
