Finally - justice.

Only it's not enough - $5 is a better figure.

Fortunately if you know how, you can make your own tax free beer and bypass
the socialist march in this particular tax.

We Canadians pay $20 and up for a 12 pack, and stand in line for health care
with waits as long as 2 years. And 3 times what Americans pay for hard
liquor. Jim Beam, $45 a bottle. So I gave up drinking, figure between a
boat and booze, booze looses. Certainly lowers the standrad of your
lifestyle and I am lucky, I can afford a boat.

When Obama's promises are fulfilled, you will wonder where your pay cheque
went. The gross will look great, but the net will suck. Price of statism
and liberalism.

You sort of missed my point.

But that's ok -it's the spirit that counts. :)

Man, if you bitch like this about taxes in the US, you must be a
well-known quantity in your neighborhood.

What's the equivalent of the John Birch society in Canada?

"Beer is proof God loves us."

Benjamin Franklin

My state (Utah) changed its liquor laws this year. It now allows for liquor
by the drink instead of the archaic "clubs", and all that falderal. It also
has changed the laws regarding home beer brewing so that any person can brew
up to 200 gallons without doing anything special tax wise or registering
with the government wise, or otherwise. I have no clue how they monitor the
amount a person brews.

I am considering setting up a microbrewery and trying it.

Damn stuff in the stores is getting ridiculous. In the state liquor store
system, a bottle of regular strength beer is about $1.50 a bottle. "Near
beer" is sold at the convenience stores, but will give you a bladder
explosion before a buzz. The state is historically against drinking, but
really in favor of the taxes and income from the infidels and "Jack Mormons"
who drink.

I just stop in Mesquite, Nevada, at a real liquor store and stock up.
Liquor prices in Utah at the State owned stores run about 40% higher than
normal states, and selection sucks.

May be able to avoid federal taxation altogether unless they put hefty taxes
on the ingredients. Then, I'll probably go to hydroponic herb. Medical
reasons, of course.

Homebrew. That's the answer to a LOT of problems!
Saw a T-shirt that had a picture that looked like the puzzle on Wheel
of Fortune. It had the following on it, I'll use a _ for the blank
spaces:
AL_OHOL

Underneath it said "Sometimes alcohol IS the answer"!

Don't currently live in the US, but did for almost 10 years. Don't know
John Birch Society at all.

Wait until Obama statism catches up to Canada, then you will understand.

Sorry about that. I am still realing and rank mad at my last year Canadian
tax bill. Basically cart over 1/2 the cheque to government in one form or
another.

I was always humoured by the t-shirts in the mid 70's.
