This Means War!

Obamacare is a disaster. We will really begin to pay the price next year, when Obama is out of office of course, and here is a minor example but one that touches on something near and dear to my heart:

As of December 2016, Obamacare dictates that all brewers must include a detailed calorie count on every type of beer they produce. Failure to comply with the new regulations means craft brewers will not be able to sell their beer in any restaurant chain with over 20 locations. Because this is a major market for selling beer, it hamstrings smaller craft brewers if they do not comply.

The compliance cost is estimated at $77,000 per brewery, which is a sizable amount of coin for a small craft brewery. So how much did Bud or Miller pay to get this slipped into the 3,000 page Frankenstein's monster of a bill? We'll never know, but since the craft brewing sector employs 440,000 nationally and has revenues of almost $56 billion, the more little guys the big brewers can run off, the better heir bottom lines look. Better healthcare is what Obamacare is all about? Ja sure - Crony Capitalism and government meddling at its finest! And messing up craft beer. Sacrilege!
