Portland Oregon is a messed up town. But alcohol and beer wine sales are very down nationwide due to health trends. Ozempic is a factor. And people not having the money to squander.
MacDonalds is down 6% year to year. People are not spending what they do not have.
Gen Z is not interested in drinking at all.
I’m now making my own wine. Tasty and 1\3 the price. No sulfites.
When it comes to legalized vices like alcohol, cigarettes and marijuana... Legal sales are way down... But are they really down?
Governments worldwide have overtaxed these three vices buy such a large margin that the illegal market for them has increased substantially... And that market is very profitably.
Carton’s of cigarettes sell for $15 and less... High grade marijuana for $20 an ounce and less... And alcohol for almost next to nothing.
Legal sales are down... Illegal sales are skyrocketing.
Who wants a 15 dollar shot of gin, in Portland, when you can get fentanyl pills for $2?
Alcohol and beer wine sales are very down nationwide due to marijuana trends.
It’s why so many states make it legal it’s a cash cow because alcohol price went to high.
I’ll take a beer before a joint anythime storners drive people crazy.
