While I am ecstatic that the Bud Lite conservative backlash is having an effect I only wish that instead of a 17% drop in Bud sales in an 18% increase in a rival beers sales. I would prefer it result in less beer sales. As you might’ve guess I don’t drink. I did long ago and it almost ruined life and put my wife thru Hell. At one point I had been thinking about how beer seemed on the surface to mean more to me than my family and I felt miserable for it. Then one day by the grace of God I found the strength one afternoon to not make the turn leading to where I always went after work to buy my beer for that night. It was truly a miracle because after making that hard decision that one time I never again had any desire to drink again. So please forgive me when I say I wish that a more positive result came from the Bud situation. I understand that some drink only a couple beers while watching the game on the weekends and if thats all then you are probably okay, but most don’t do that and before they know it and without even realizing it those two beers a week turn into a six pack, then it turns into a daily thing and then the beer is in control and your life sirals out of control. Just be careful and may God watch over you and give you the strength you need as he did me.
I thought my parents passed away almost 2 decades ago.
Cool try at a lecture, though.
