By raising it slightly above the average 12 year old allowance, they will cut consumption by kids.

Large breweries have complained about losing thousands of beer kegs a year in Michigan because retail beer customers have been selling off the stainless steel barrels at scrap yards rather than returning them to stores to get their $10 deposit back.

Meanwhile, Detroit can't even give these away.

“Large breweries have complained..”

Why in the world didn’t the breweries increase the deposits on their property? If they had, the stores would have passed that along to the customers and then the return rate would be higher...Why was the government necessary in this situation?

Buying a keg for your next party is a little more expensive.

No, it stayed the same, unless you lose the keg. Then it's more expensive.

If anything, it may be less expensive. Does anyone think that material costs aren't included in the price of the beer?

Remember the guy a while back with the red paper clip ... ... it's all his fault. Trading up.
