If you had any idea why the prices of alcoholic beverages are so high you can thank uncle sam and the "mafia" alcoholic beverages wholesalers.

Did you know that in all states anyone that serves alcohol "MUST" purchase that alcohol from "Government" "STATE" sponsered "wholesalers", who in turn can set their price as high as they like. Monopoly, as the retailers CANNOT purchase from out of state.................

We really do need much less goberment.
But TS, it's set up that way so the gub'ment can regulate the quality and consistency of the booze. Imagine how many variations of Keystone Light from MD to AZ!!! It would be chaos!

Now that the feds have regulated Wall Street and the big banks, things are much better. Well, that's what they keep telling me on MSNBC.
